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.
