      In the last episode of Series Three, 'What a Tangled Web', Sid the caretaker laments at length that 28 years ago he was married, despite having a whole previous episode ('How's Your Father' from Series Two) about Mr. Brown offering to pay for him to wed his partner after hearing Sid never married her.
    • Quotes

      Jeremy Brown: Su-Lee, spell "Democracy"

      Chung Su-Lee: C-H-I-N-A.

      Jeremy Brown: And I suppose if I asked you to spell "Dictatorship", you would have spelt "England"?

      Chung Su-Lee: Or "America"!

    • Crazy credits
      The series title is drawn by an animated Mr Brown on a blackboard. The intertitles have him write "End of Part One" and "Part Two", and at the start of the closing credits he cleans up the blackboard signifying the end of a class.

    A laugh a minute

    I used to watch this as a 10 year old kid. Not even knowing what rasism was I thought this was the greatest show ever. I guess I could relate to the characters trying to learn something new. They were almost like children in that classroom which made it really easy for someone of my age to find it ammusing. It's a shame that in these times of politcal correctness that it'll never be shown on Australian TV again. I don't even think its on pay TV. I doubt it. So heres to one of the best TV shows of its time. A laugh a minute. Nothing more. Nothing less.
