BBC edits Chewin' The Fat shows to remove jokes mocking Asians and blind people

Chewin' The Fat sketches which mocked Japanese and blind people have been banned by the BBC.

Last month it was revealed that old episodes of the hit Scottish comedy series were being re-edited for repeat showings to avoid offending modern audiences.

Chewin’ The Fat launched the careers of Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill who went on to write sitcom Still Game.
