Manuel victim of racism
I have just got the complete series on DVD and watching the show there is one thing that strikes me. There are many times when Manuel status as coming from Spain is somehow linked to his level in intelligence. One example being in The Builders and the scene where the delivery man with the garden gnome makes a comment along those lines. Yes those people who make the remarks are shown to be narrow minded fools including Basil.
