new trailer for next Doctor Who special

[DAMartin]

The Master... I've always liked those villains who are almost the same as the hero (Bizarro, Catman, Nemesis Prime, Reverse-Flash, Red Guardian, Sinestro, Titanium Man, Venom, Wario, etc)

[Chopper]

Er... that's a pretty offensive term in the UK, Chop!

It is? What's the UK take on it? Melbourne is second only to Athens for Greek population, did you know? Wog boy is a comedy about a Wog (Greek) lad. A pretty good one too.

The guy in one of the early parts of that trailer looked like Nick Giannopuolous. It isn't tho, just checked.

Over here the term Wog is about as offensive as Kiwi or Pom. I.e. not at all. You Pom's are a weird lot

[Sundance]

it's a racist term for bla... col... afr... melanin-deficient people like the 'N' word.

[Chopper]

Aha, I get ya. Love thy neighbour? Weird lot indeed.

The term Wog, in Australia refers to someone of eastern Mediterranean (Greek, Italian, Lebanese etc) origin.

Not really a derogatory term any more, in Australia. No more than, Pom.

[Red Laser]

Sounds like you are more open minded there then Chopper it's only assholes who made the term derogatory in the UK.

[The Baron]

Well, no, it means something completely different in Oz.

I'm trying to think of a UK-based nickname for Greeks and can't think of any!

[Chopper]

That's a shame, best thing about your Mediterranean lot is the food. By god Melbourne has some good food.

[Sundance]

isn't 'wop' the insulting term for the Greeks? i know i was under the impression wog was for people from Africa or African origin as in 'golliwog'.

Italians were 'Ey-ties' when i was kid...

[The Baron]

Nah, Wop is for italians. But not so insulting, same league as Pom I'd say.

[Chopper]

Pom is not derogatory in any way, Wop is tho.

Shrouded in mystery.
