==Notability==
While the show was not the first black (or predominantly black) British television situation comedy (''The Fosters'', 1976-77〔Ali Jaafar, ("Fosters, The (1976-77)" ), BFI Screenonline.〕), it was the first to be set mainly in the workplace,〔 which provided an insight on black family life different from those seen before on British television.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Screenonline: Desmond's (1988-94) )〕 The characters had aspirations (Desmond to return to Guyana, Michael to run his own branch of the bank, Gloria to get a job in fashion, Sean to get to university) and were socially mobile.〔 The vast majority of the crew were also black.〔("Desmond's" ), British Comedy Guide.〕
