How to mend broken hearts

Article Abstract:

I was Alf Garnett's love child

Article Abstract:

Some observers believe that television scriptwriter Johnny Speight, who died recently, created the character of Alf Garnett in 'Till Death Us Do Part' in order to mock the racism, chauvinism and extreme conservatism that was common among white males in the UK in the 1960s. In fact, many ordinary television viewers took Alf Garnett seriously and largely shared his views. Black people were frequently mocked, and Alf Garnett simply said on television what the majority of people said in their own home.
