    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      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.
