That's funny because I read about coded letters sent by WW1 Sikh soldiers in Europe back to India saying: "The black pepper is stronger than the red pepper." Which was taken as a code that they thought the brown soldiers were stronger than the white ones? 

Could well be possibly the case.

But I guess sometimes there is respect for adversary. 

Germans generally are taller and better built than the Brits.

Things you Never see, numbers 27 and 28:

27) Any Tv Programme on BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and SKY 1 fullfilling the 'ethnic' quota that doesn't star Nish Kumar or Romesh Ranganathan. 

Any TV schedule for coming week:

• 7:30 pm BBC1 : Join Ramesh Ranganathan as he journeys across America on a unicycle
• 21:00 Sky 1 : Watch the hilaraity as Nish Kumar attempts to cross Russia whilst dressed as a cross-dressing cossack
• 21:45 Channel 4: In this heartbreaking episode friends Romesh Ranganathan and Nish Kumar go fishing in the Cotswolds only to discover that their friend Mobeen left the box of maggots in the boot of his Honda Civic.

Yes. As far as British TV executives and producers are concerned these 2 men (who make up 0.00000000000001% of the UK Asian population) are actually 100% of the UK Asian population.

28) Any advert on TV that does not contain an overweight black lady laughing / deleriously smiling.  Because, in TV executive land, that's what black people do. They are doing so well in life and society's been so good to them they just can't hide their contentment and spend on average 23.5 hours per day in a permanent state of laughter.....apparently.

29) My kids saying to me at Asda: "no dad.....we don't want crisps / ice cream / sweets. Why don't you use the money we saved on a complete DVD box-set of The Wire instead"
