So many of the reactions of the students are predictable and so much a part of who their characters were that want them respond as they do. It's much the same as wanting a comedian to use the catchphrase they are known for or for a singer to perform their best known hit rather than playing something new. It is their predictability of the characters that initially you might find repetitive but ultimately it becomes what makes them humorous. If Juan doesn't say "por favor" or Taro doesn't stand up and bows before speaking it just feels wrong.I'm a bit of a fan of Barry Evans. He comes across as a really likeable person and a very good actor. It's a shame that new roles dried up for him so he had to drop out of acting to earn a living as a taxi driver.</blockquote>
