**DAILY MAIL ALERT** BritBox sparks 'yellowface' row after BBC and ITV streaming service runs Doctor Who episode with racist slurs and white actors wearing make-up to play Asian characters No prizes for guessing what story was transmitted! "BritBox has been accused of 'racism' after it put up an episode of Doctor Who where Chinese people are referred to as 'inscrutable chinks' and 'yellowfaced'. The £5.99-a-month streaming service run by the BBC and ITV failed to put a content warning on the 1977 six-part series where white actors are also shown wearing make-up and putting on accents as they play Asian characters. Spokeswoman for the British East Asians in Theatre & on Screen and a screenwriter for Hollyoaks and Doctors who grew up in Hong Kong, Emma Ko, told The Times the episode is 'really hard to watch because yellowface is so unacceptable now'. 'When you are somebody who was called a "Chink" in your childhood, as I have been, it is so hard to hear that word and not feel immediately a trigger reaction of how wrong it is.'"

They say as much in the comm for Talons cough. Lack of Chinese actors at the time etc etc. Quick! A Fu Manchu film might be starting on Talking Pictures ....

I am unsure of this is the complete list, or whether it is a 'sampler' of what is to come. If it *is* everything, it's very disappointing

During a lull, I fell to perusing the books we have for sale, and came across the 50th anniversary annual, which explains the timeline up to that point. I was sadly interrupted by customers before I could read any further ahem ....
