It is strange that a "family comedy" that went out on BBC1 in the early evening has had to be censored.
Is it perhaps because we are now more "PC" than we were and jokes about gays, or "colored people" would not go down too well today.
I was watching an "Only fools and horses" on TV about 5 years ago and Uncle Albert came in with some shopping and said:
"I have just been down the p*ki shop"
This was probably an OK thing to say when it was made but would probably now be censored.
I know UK Gold (now called GOLD) do censor some comedy, even a Porridge had a mild swear word censored the other day.
