Love Thy Neighbour (Season 2, Episode 1 - The House-warming Party) - Does it challenge or reinforce stereotypes?

After watching the first episode of the second season of the show "Love Thy Neighbour" I was easily able to comprehend that this show simply just reinforces stereotypes (in this case predominantly about black people in this episode). In fact I don't believe I came across any examples of where it challenges a stereotype, mainly just reinforcements of stereotypes.

For example, in instance one of the characters say "Bill was al right for a blackie." when the main character is forcing the black character Bill to leave town. By saying this, the show suggests that the majority of black people are generally seen in a negative light and that it's very rare to see one that is of good company. Before getting to know his personality, they're practically automatically assuming that they're not going to like him due to the colour of his skin. This reinforces the stereotype that black people are generally disliked due to the shows clear racism - which can be seen as the the main white character calls black people "nig nogs" and the main black character calls white people "honkeys".

You could also suggest that since the show was filmed in 1972 (a time where racism was a bigger issue than it is nowadays) it reinforces the stereotype of how English people like to discriminate against people who didn't originate from England. For example, this can be seen when the main character is telling his wife of how they (black people) should return to Africa because they'll feel more comfortable around their own kind as if it's where they belong and suggests that "white culture" is about "Fish & Chips, Coronation Street, Man United etc.). This is also seen when the main character is discussing with his two friends at the pub and refers to it as a "colour problem" due to the fact that the white and black characters a lot of the time like to base their judgement on another's colour of skin.
