Jerry Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 Evidently Gervais has found a natural foil for sadistic humour and sent him around the world to discover interesting people and places. It says here SkyOne has shown eight episodes over there and three of them have been shown in the USA on our Discovery Science Channel on Saturday nights at 10 PM. I saw clips from those three: China, India, and Israel. Karl: It isn't a 'great' wall. It's an 'all right' wall. And one of the Israeli commandos says to Karl: You look like a scouser!

Gary Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 I enjoyed the series so much I bought the DVD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Posted March 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 The Idiot Abroad episode tonight was PERU. The mammary glands of the native women were obscured with a blurry circle, lest Science students (it's on the Discovery Science Channel) become interested in South American native female types. I wonder if the DVDs likewise protect our sensitive Victorian mores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Posted March 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Slowly, it sinks into my consciousness. OF COURSE the censorship originated with the producers - Gervais and Merchant -- it is part of the joke !!!! Can't show the naughty bits on a Science Channel, just in the DVDs, eh?
