#goodnessgraciousme — Public Fediverse posts

The premise is this “#GoodnessGraciousMe” sketch: https://m.facebook.com/kulghir/videos/my-gay-son-goodness-gracious-me/10150450756265657/

Mom: Beta, get married

Son: I… I’m gay, this is my boyfriend

Mom: <without missing a beat> And you couldn’t find a nice Indian boy?

Goodness Gracious Me's Jonathan Sketch (fr the 20th annivesary), with backstory.

YES -- Been there. Prior to the horrid Disney film, I kept being called Jessica, Jocelyn (& an employer's client kept calling me James).

Also have been told to change my surname to something normal to make it easier for "people". My response: "My surname means something. It's not like Smith or Braun." Well, it turns out her surname was Braun.

“#Foundation”: #KulvinderGhir hams it up as a Foundation folk magician: #Sikh comedian, Hindu tilak, Buddhist robes, Xtian revival.

Quite funny seeing the same smile from “#GoodnessGraciousMe” in ponderous sci-fi.

The time E. saw & met #BenCross, #AlexFerns, #SanjeevBhaskar, #EricLoren and #JoMartin.

Also known as e.g. #Sarek, 'That guy from #Andor, Chernobyl or Eastenders', "#GoodnessGraciousMe & Abel do for ya?" as well as human Dalek Sec and the best Doctor of them all.

Actually 2 times, bc Cross, Ferns + Bhaskar did ART the first summer. A year later Cross, Ferns, Loren + Martin were in Coyote on a Fence.

I'm so hipster I pick my fave #DoctorWho actors when I see them on stage, dontchaknow? 😉

@Sanjeevbhaskar You're the real Sanjeev Bhaskar! It didn't click when I shared your post. I loved #GoodnessGraciousMe both on the radio and television. And #TheKumars.

Glad you're on Mastodon. I'm sorry you fell foul of another instance. That's one of the potential problems of federation, though we don't like to talk about it round these parts. Anyway, welcome! And I hope it all works out here.

So, 25 years ago today saw the introduction of #GoodnessGraciousMe to the airwaves. And for me, everything changed. Still grateful for the then and the now.

Yesterday I spent an inordinate amount of money on a small plate of chaat so today I made it at home for lunch. Really channeling my inner Nina Wadia.
