The well known puppet is being investigated after being accused of racism. A sketch in his TV show involving gyppsy's has apparantly come under scrutiny after complaints from gypsy's that they should be included in the anti racism laws.
From what I hear on the news the skit involved a gypsy stealing Basil's wallet.
Good about time to, put him up against a wall and shoot him.
Boom boom.
Followed by Captain Pugwash (called his ship the Black Pig), and He-man (sexism called his gang masters of the Universe, even though there was a girl in it). Purify all childrens TV now!
I would write more but I am desperate for a gypsies kiss .
Gypsies aren't real, my mom told me.
I read that it was just one person who called in to complain.
And not a gypsy.
I bloody hate Basil Brush. But I did love him when I was little.
I got collared for 20 minutes on the door step by some gypsey woman teling me I was heading for bad luck unless I bought these stones and after saying not interested about 200 times I finally bought one for few quid only to find he kids nicked my car.

But besides that, good luck?
yeah can't knock it.
I think we can ascertain, from the evidence provided us by the fact that gypsies have to sell heather, that lucky heather isn't really all that lucky.
well it is if you dont pick it. Unfortunately when a Gysey comes knocking on the door and asks you to follow it to a feild to see something it thinks you ma like then the police usually get involved.

They probably don't have televisions or phones to do so!
