Oh sorry, the context in the show was that the major was telling Fawlty about his experience (very limited) with women and told him that he had taken a woman to india. Fawlty is astonished and says: you took her to india? The major responds: India at the Oval (referring to a pageant type show at a British cinema)

It's a venerable practice. The Grimm brothers cleaned up the fairy tales they collected and other folks are doing the same to the stories today. From wikipedia:
You can change with it if you want, I'm sure as hell not.
Oh dear, things are really bad if a Broadway composer is complaining. I don't know if anything is more milquetoast than Broadway. I suggest you amuse yourself with Struwwelpeter, an uncensored collection of cautionary tales for children written in German in 1844, which probably doesn't sell well for children todayYou can change with it if you want, I'm sure as hell not.
The same people who are pushing all this censorship and revisionism are the same people who say it's ok for prepubescent children to have sex change operations. These people are total fucking lunatics.
It's Maoist style social/cultural destruction they're engaged in.
Broadway Composer Says Maoist Takeover of Arts is Like Living in a “Totalitarian State”
“No one dares say it out loud.”
Acclaimed Broadway composer Stephen Schwartz says that the mob’s takeover of arts and culture feels like something straight out of a Maoist “totalitarian state.”
In an interview with the Telegraph, Schwartz highlights the insanity of the left’s new “cultural appropriation” purity test, where if artists want to avoid retribution from the woke brigade, they are only allowed to write about “someone who is exactly like you.”
“Everyone in the arts in America is talking about the tyranny of cancel culture and cultural appropriation,” said Schwartz. “The funny thing is, no one dares to say it aloud. It’s like living in a totalitarian state.”
The composer of 2017’s Prince of Egypt slammed the new Maoist ideological militancy which employs censorship and intimidation tactics to suffocate independent creativity.
“We’ve lost the ability to have our world view challenged by another point of view. It’s as though we’ve become terrified of ideas. But ideas are how society progresses,” said Schwartz.
The former president of the Directors Guild of America said that positive depictions of white characters are routinely decried as “white saviors,” adding, “What’s also strange is that if you write a character who is bigoted, people now assume you hold those views yourself.”
Noting that it’s a “weird time” for the arts, Schwartz underscores how the mob is mimicking the behavior of the Salem Witch trials, where “accusation is everything” and people are condemned and vilified for opinions they had 20 years ago.
The composer compared the mob’s treatment of those deemed to have made such infractions to “making people wander around wearing dunce caps saying they are sorry.”
Schwartz is by no means an obscure figure, having won three Grammys, three Oscars and a Golden Globe.
His strident condemnation of the relatively small but vociferous mob who have weaponized cancel culture to terrify artists into being amplifiers for their various inane social justice causes should be applauded.
“I think the pendulum has swung so far it’s got to swing back now. It’s just too crazy,” concluded Schwartz. “The whole point about art is empathy. At the end of the day we have to deal with it if we want to live in a free society.”

no he was referring to taking her to see India play test cricket at the Oval cricket ground in London
that is correct he was referring to cricket
That's precisely the point. Even someone like that is affected by it and can see it for what it is.
