I just told you!

But it's not about knowing who they are!

It's about: he'd never heard of the saying: red sky at night sailors delight. Red sky at morning...

He also asked David Mitchel (a comedian) "who did you say was the Prime Minister again". He had to be told it was Theresa May.

Wakey Wakey!

I do watch Would I Lie To You although I’m not really into comedy ,they do have a lot of fun on it and the stories told can be hilarious . DM is team captain .

It's not about who Big Narsiie is or David Mitchell.

Try to focus now!

I was greeted today, in a most pleasant fashion by a gentleman, dressed in an attire, that could be considered unusual, to the environment he was located in. It was a very refreshing encounter.

Spitfire thank God! You've managed to get them back on track. It's like listening to a broken record in this thread isn't it?

I hope I've got more more things to worry about than Noel bloody Edmonds. Jeez!

Re: British Asians' Knowledge of Our "Popular Culture".

Hi

I am getting to realise I know very little about popular British Culture.

I am quite relaxed about it, in fact I am not bothered at all.

I am not Asian, or an immigrant, just a butt ugly Northerner.

Floydy ... we've moved on from Noel bloody Edmonds to a black comedian saying: "who did you say was the Prime Minister again", not the funniest joke in the world, he was just adlibbing in the middle of something else, but Gravy is astounded by the man's ignorance.
