I will say, I give some leeway to comedy, and the like. If you're not actually casting for the roles, and are just using your acting existing group, I have much less issue with the races involved. That's what I assume is happening here.

I watched the bit, and there is at least no racial element. The actor is just black. In this case I don't really care.

this is a major legendary classic british comedy duo returning to screen together after decades

I don't follow them, so I didn't know the full story. That certainly makes it less favorable. It should clearly open with, you know, THEM.

It's also worth mentioning though that, this being from the hellscape that is Britain, it might literally be illegal to just have two white dudes doing a show.

And, as I said, it's not apolitical. It's funny that the black dude is the most noteworthy part to some, though, considering they do climate change nonsense, class stuff, girlbossing, and more. I only skimmed, but the messaging seems more objectionable than simply the casting.

It pretty much does prominently feature THEM though. It's the two main men having a conversation.

Yeah, returning together because their solo careers never quite took off.

Dont get me wrong, im a fan, im gonna give it a shot.

But they're not back for love of comedy or needing to send a message, they're back for the money.

They're all playing british aristocrats.

Who cares? It's a comedy sketch. They aren't making it all about race, so why are you?

Nope! I've been granted immortality so I'm not gonna be dying anytime soon. I'm happy as ever too! Enjoying a little autumn rain today

We've also had a comment exchange a couple weeks ago. Guess you're not too observant.

When they only cast women and blacks that's very much the usual DEI.

I'm not saying it's completely apolitical, just that I have less issue when it's clearly actors acting.
