BTW, the Mind Your Language page has more comments on its tribute page than any other show on this website - that in itself speaks to what a gem this show is! (Hope the people who decided to yank it off the air see this page.) RIP to cast and crew who have passed on.ģ83 Rachael Kibuku from Kenya: Wow what a show it used to be in the 90's on the only Kenyan national TV then.
Also great to read the comments by people with direct connections to the show. Don't have a favourite cast member or episode because it's too hard to just pick one! I have enjoyed reading everyone's comments and it's good to know this show is loved by people of all ethnicities. People are too serious and sensitive these days.ģ84 Marie from Canada: I always enjoyed watching this show when I was young and it's always been one of my favourites. However, watching it again now, I can truly appreciate the scripts. As a teenager, I couldn't grasp everything from the show. However they made a difference and salute them all.ģ85 Cheng from Penang, Malaysia: I watched this show in the 80s with my family every week. Remarks were universal where all walks of culture could understand and comprehend its jokes but am sad that some people of it is no more.
One of the best comedies till today and nice to see so many remarks on his page. Jamila is still working and has just finished a stint on 'Hollyoaks'.ģ87 Nikki from Philly: Love this show.Glad it on the Internet!!!ģ86 jag from malaysia: Watched it when I was a kid growing up in 80s. My friends in India tell me that MYL is currently being telecast in India. Jamila and I had great respect for Vince Powell, Stuart Allen and Barry Evans.

The serial also shows frequent rivalry between some of the students-Ranjeet Singh of Punjab against Ali Nadeem (Dino Shafeek) of Pakistan (reflecting the bitter relations between the two countries) a Chairman Mao-obsessed Chung Su-Lee (Pik-Sen Lim) of China against Taro Nagazumi (Robert Lee) of Japan (a throwback to WWII rivalry) and Maximillian of Greece against Giovanni of Italy (probably alluding to the Greco-Italian conflict during WWII). For example, the sari-clad Jamila Ranjha (Jamila Massey) is a housewife from India while Ranjeet Singh, a Sikh portrayed by Albert Moses, is from Punjab, which, in spite of being a part of India, is shown as a separate country.
