you have to take into account that this is being broadcast all over the world. so with that reasoning you have to wonder if and even why they wanted to depict the typical British family in this way.

you have to remember that a lot of countries won't know what a typical British family is. and this is what they will think it actually is.
I saw it as a typical British family who happened to be of mixed colours ,which of course is quite normal in most countries including this one.
