Some strong language.
The good old BBC advises us that the video in the link contains some strong language. If you view the video you will hear the word 5hit once. Hardly the stuff of Gordon Ramsay. Do you think the BBC treats its employers (us licence payers) like children?

Talk about damned if you do damned if you don't
If they don't put advisories like this on all the sad acts who think Mary Whitehouse was God's gift write "disgusted of Tumbridge Wells" letters!
You can't work on a watershed basis on-line so it sounds like a pretty sensible compromise.
I can't think of another broadcaster even close to the BBC's quality yet so many people seem to want to attack it and pull it down!

Well I for one dont think anybody needs to say "5hit", or any other swearword, on TV.
People seem to think it is big or clever to throw a swear word in every so often, but it just shows a lack of inteligence and a lack of consideration for the viewer.
I watched the Peter Kay shows just before Xmas, where he played Geraldine McQueen on the micky take of all the reality talent shows, and very clever they were too.
But they were spoilt by needless swearing.
I was hoping after the Brand / Ross fiasco that there would be a backlash against swearing on TV, but not seen much sign of it so far.

Guess what?
People swear in life
If you don't reflect that you end up looking as ridiculous and out of touch as reading the news in dinnerjackets.
Imagine a drama on say a teenage girl telling her parents she's pregnant
Would you have the father say "Where is that dashed bounder?"
Gangsters calling each other rotters perhaps?
Maybe it's too often, maybe not, but there is a need for it.
