For Fox Sake
I didn't know whether to put this here or in the jokes section of anything goes. It seems that Basil Brush has been branded a racist by gipsies who claim they were abused on his kids TV show, It appears that Basil made a quip about his wallet going missing when talking about gipsies selling pegs and heather. Basil is now facing a police investigation. This particular show was first screened 6 years ago but was repeated again on CBEES a month ago. The gist of the storey is that Basil went to a fortune teller who said he was going on a long journey, he then had his wallet wiped and had to walk home BOOM BOOM

Re: For Fox Sake
Gypsies selling heather, and pegs?
Whatever racial outrage will they come out with next?
That gypsies will tarmac your drive, but only for cash?
Personally I hope Basil countersues the cheeky ******, as he personally has lost a lot of friends because of them. As they will insist on making that Romany favourite, baked hedgehog.

Re: For Fox Sake
Oh dear it's come to something when kids t.v is considered racist!
I'm surprised they have t.v's tbh.
But i suppose it's okay for them to take over land wherever they go,trying to sell stuff that nobody wants and cursing you if you don't?

About time they were moved on for good, the rubbish they have piled up is ridiculous If you or I had it stacked in our backyards we would be taken before the courts
