SmugKitZine Tied for the best movie I have ever seen
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
spunkyr This is a British comedy that also aired in Jamaica, the island. That's where I watched it, and loved it! I don't know anyone who didn't watch it when it aired. The accents seemed an authentic mix of Jamaican and British accents. To this day I still remember the lyrics from the introduction, but I was only child at the time. I can't be certain I ever had the lyrics right. Can anyone who is absolutely sure about the lyrics post them here, or tell me if these lyrics are correct? Thanks."No problem, no problem, To Jamaica they have flown. No problem, no problem, That is good 'cause we're all grown. No problem, no problem, 'Cause while the cat's away No problem, no problem, The mice will surely play. No problem!"
souldub No Problem! was the first black made sitcom created for British TV... It was also the first British produced sitcom on Channel 4.It was set in a council house in north London. Focusing on the young-adult Powell children, whose parents have returned to Jamaica, leaving them by themselves. Terri is hoping to become established as a model; her boyfriend, Beast, opens a night club; Toshiba runs a pirate radio station (Radio Runnings) and later releases his own hit record; Melba is their cousin, visiting from Jamaica; and so on. No Problem! was not radical, however black culture was embraced, right up to Aswad appearing in the final episode.The cast were members of the Black Theatre Co-operative, which staged plays in and around London in the early 1980s.
