Goodness Gracious Me

[Dr. Pepper]

For those of you who don't know, it was a British-Indian sketch show that used to come on. Such a funny show that was. Anyone used to watch it? Hilarious show. My favourite sketch is the "Going out for an English" and "Typical Indian parents".

Here are a few vids of it:

Don't worry about the copyright stuff because they were put up by BBCWorldwide so they have to be fine.

Indeed, used to be one of my favourite shows.

This show occupied too much of my childhood...
'Santa is Indian' has to be up there as well.


Rudolph is Ranjeet and Bethlehem is Bangalore :laugh

lol it was the bomb.

When he says "why isn't our son in the liverpool team"...

the wife replys.. "BECAUSE HE'S ONLY 5"

 

[ZexyZahid]

Yeah, it was really great to watch. I don't understand really why they quit with this. It was a huge success.

Going for an English was one of the most genius sketches, I've ever seen.

"Getting tanked up on Lassi's..."

"What's the blandest thing on the menu?"

 

[Leggie]

Haha, they call the waitor, whose real name is James, Jams and Jemas :laugh

'That's what you do ena, you go out, you get tanked up on Lassi's and then you go for an English. I mean it wouldn't be a Friday night if you didn't go for an English!'

Haha, this is too funny

"Pug man, man pug...SIKH"

 

[Dr. Pepper]

Lol yeah "And the thing you do with your hands...very bad."

Thought I'd bump this to ask if anyone's been watching Mumbai Calling? It's on at the same time as Michael McIntyre's Comedy Road Show (thanks to Sky+ HD I can watch both ) so I doubt many of you have. It's good, not up to the standard of Goodness Gracious Me though, and enjoyable for the Indian family.
