"South Africa" is an episode of the award-winning British comedy television series ''The Goodies''. This episode is also known as "''Apartheight''" and as "''A South African Adventure''". Written by The Goodies, with songs and music by Bill Oddie. ==Plot== The Goodies are hired by a maniacally racist South African Tourist Agent to make an advertisement encouraging Britons to come to South Africa. However, the tourist agent is unhappy with what they have done, since they showed black people in South Africa having a good time. Tim points out that South Africa is full of black people, but the Tourist Agent retorts that they aren't having a good time. The enraged agent forces the Goodies to emigrate to South Africa. The influx of tourist boats the Goodies' advertisement brings allows the black people an opportunity to get away from South Africa, leading to apartheid segregation disintegrating. To keep the economy going, apartheid is replaced by the new segregation of ''apartheight'' (apart-height). Tim and Graeme are tall enough not to be affected — but Bill is not quite tall enough. Bill, and the South African jockeys, are now treated as the second class citizens of South Africa, and are put under curfew. Bill is also forced to work for Tim and Graeme, who both take full advantage of Bill's newly disadvantaged position and treat him like a slave. Bill takes charge of the situation, and he and the jockeys rebel and eventually win out against their 'masters'. The Goodies return to Britain — but the Britain they return to is vastly different from the Britain they had left behind just a short time before. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「South Africa (The Goodies)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
