Trivias:
uncategorized: Despite being one of the most popular British television series at the time of its original broadcast in the 1970s, it has never been repeated on UK terrestrial television due to many perceiving it as racist (although it has been repeated on UK Gold) and is often cited in discussions of racist television from the era.
uncategorized: Gwendolyn Watts played Joan Booth in the pilot, but was replaced by Kate Williams for the series proper.
Plot: A white working-class socialist has his world turned upside down when an educated black man moves in next door.
