TITLE: Love Thy Neighbour classic Collection Boxset[Final Series eight] ********************************************** Genre: comedy race prejudice Country: uk Language: eng Plot: Love Thy Neighbour was aired from 13 April 1972, until 22 January 1976 If you remember this from on screen in the 70's you know what to expect. It is based on the difficult time in the early to mid 70's when White British people struggled in their acceptance to the mass immigration of the Black community. They live next door to each other, the women get on and the men don't. The men also work together the White male character is portrayed as being quite working class and lesser educated, and continually calls his counterpart a "nig nog" and Sambo. Whilst the Black Male character is scripted as being more refined and well read; he is also very capable of racism though; he refers to his opposite as a "honky" or "snowflake". Whilst being very popular during the early to mid 70's it did make rise to a great deal of criticism due to it's complete disregard to social cohesion and acceptance, if you were to study the episodes you do see racism on both parts. This boxset includes all 7 series which ran from 1972-1976, it did create similar controversy as did "till death do us part" due to the (in some cases) harsh racist comments and actions. This will be something you either love and find hillarious or you hate and would find offensive. If it was to be aired on television these days it would have a continuity announcement warning of the likelihood to offence that may be caused. I would recommend that you ask someone who knows you well and that remembers it as to whether you would enjoy this. The DVD releases of Love Thy Neighbour are somewhat muddled. Series 1-3 were originally released by Pegasus Entertainment, and Series 4-8 were released by FremantleMedia. . ************************************** EPISODES 1.The Local By-Election Broadcast 11 December 1975 2.Eddie Becomes A Father Again" Broadcast: 18 December 1975 3.Christmas Spirit" Broadcast: 25 December 1975 4.For Sale Broadcast 8 January 1976 5.Power Cut Broadcast 15 January 1976 6.The Lodger Broadcast 22 January 1976 THIS COMPLETES MY COLLECTION
