Swearing on Dave

Has anyone noticed how Dave don't bleep out swear words before the watershed? Doesn't bother me personally but I would have thought they would get a fair few complaints!

Re: Swearing on Dave

Don't post about it when it isn't cut otherwise some **** will complain and Dave will start editing. It probably got away with it thus far due to its target audience.

Problem is, what's a swear word these days?

When I walk through our local town, I hear conversations all around me that I would consider swearing.

But it's obviously just a normal way of speaking to the people I pass.

Suppose TG must be getting old...

I completely agree swearing is part of our everyday culture which annoys the hell out of me that you cannot swear at a policeman for fear of getting into trouble. Yet it's part of our everyday existence in real life, on television, in movies, on the radio, in music, magazines. Even li'l kids at school do.
