i have heard the same (lily allen) song on radio 1 and radio 2 over the last week. When it was on BBC 2 it was censored, but on radio 1 it wasn't. Why would that be?
prev The Archers ?

maybe. i don't understand what was so bad about the word they cut anyway. Perhaps that's because i listen to more radio 1 though :)

More chance of younger children listening to radio 2 due to their parents listening maybe?

i don't really know dec, i just found it odd that if the BBC were going to find a word so offensive they have to cut it out, why isn't it the same for every station the BBC outputs?

Maybe time of day? Censored before the watershed but not after?

Maybe what's left after the edit is more than enough Lily Allen, innit.

Wasnt like this years ago. A banned record was banned from whole of BBC broadcasting or not at all. Bet not many hear have heard of Flat Foot Floozy with the Floy Floy - which was banned because it was about a hooker with a nasty disease!
