“Mind Your Language”
Buffalo, NY: Bridges
TV has announced the addition of the groundbreaking comedy
Mind Your Language to their primetime schedule.
Mind Your Language, with one of the most culturally diverse
casts ever to appear in television, follows the hilarious
efforts of immigrants as they learn English and integrate
into their new home. Mind Your Language exposed
British audiences to the rich cultural diversity in the
UK and demonstrated that a multi-cultural cast could find
a broad audience. During its run, Mind Your Language
was one of the most popular shows in the UK and eventually
gained a huge following worldwide including Pakistan, India,
Malaysia, Middle East and South Africa.
“Humor is one of the best ways both to entertain and
break down cultural barriers. Bridges TV is proud to bring
Mind Your Language to a new generation of Americans
and in the future we look forward to introducing more high
quality programming that builds Bridges in America.”
says Mo Hassan, CEO of Bridges TV.
In the opening episode, Professor Jeremy Brown, played by
the famed Barry Evans, pleads with his pupils 'Please, let
us have no racialism…in this class all are equal.”
Indeed this message of equality spiced with an undeniable
funny plot and characters has truly resonated with so many
growing fans of Mind Your Language worldwide. This multi-cultural
comic relief brings a worldly cast of characters from every
corner of the globe as the students hail from Spain, China,
India, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Japan, Pakistan,
Middle East and Sweden.
