    Besides you get a much better class of customer in Greggs.
    as long as though you only go in there for the social side then I suppose it's OK. As for the comestibles on offer - well - YMB[STRIKE]F[/STRIKE]CJ! :D

    No, it's a lot easier to go to iplayer rather than rely on some wav file of unknown provenance.

    If you're STILL arguing that it's (text removed by MSE Forum Team) despite EVERYONE else on this forum confirming that it isn't, and providing links and screenshots of the subtitles, you're either mentally deluded or simply a troll looking for attention.

    Have you complained to the leaders of the country, also known as the daily mail?

    They love running stories on how the evil BBC corrupts children by allowing 3 "little boys" waste tax-payers money on such fakery and how it should be replaced by strictly come dancing reloaded.

    so you are worried about him using the word cocking, but you have no problem about them flashing their lights in a dogging carpark :rotfl::rotfl:
    I'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.

    You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.
  • OP, you directed people towards a dubious WAV file of unknown origin & then argue that it has been manipulated to form one word from two others.

    Seemingly everyone who has re-watched the item think they have heard C rather than F.

    I think it more likely that the dubious WAV file was manipulated than some gross conspiracy within the BBC to slip naughty words into shows before the watershed.

    Arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon: no matter how good you are at chess, its just going to knock over the pieces and strut around like its victorious.

    I have a 3 year old son. If he heard Peter Pan say (text removed by MSE Forum Team), he'd be appalled, he wouldn't suddenly find it acceptable to swear.
    If he hears it in the street he tells me that "that person said a naughty word."
    If you haven't raised your children to lean that something is inherently wrong, regardless of whether their role model does it, then that's your issue.

    It's a moot point though, as he clearly says "cocking"

    Why do people who are prone to being offended watch Top Gear?
    I love it and my ears tell me it was the C word.
