The fucking BBC and their slack attitude to mother-fucking swearing in prime time. What a bunch of... Yeah, you get it. Media regulator OfCom have told off the Beeb for screening pop stars (and their comedic friends) swearing during the eco-campaigning Live Earth concert last year. I'm more concerned that all those selfless pop stars went to so much effort, and yet I hear there's still global warming. What more do the climate gods want? I mean Phil Collins sung "fuck", Johnny Borrell said "fuck", Madonna said "motherfucker" and Chris Rock said a load of stuff. And yet the globe keeps on warming up. I'm not sure what more can be done. But more could have been done, OfCom say, by the BBC to protect the children - those poor poor children - from such outrageous rock star language on prime time telly. As a result the network will be forced to broadcast an on air apology later in the year. Whether that will cool down the earth any I don't know.
