Has the BBC revised its policy on beeping swear words, even after the watershed? In previous seasons of Jonathan Ross, there were always a number of beeps, now the fucks are flying unhindered. The beeping always annoyed me, especially late at night.

It may just be England, even Kerrang doesn't star out it's fucks any more (though that could be to do with the publishing company change since I used to read it when younger).

It's taking a bit of getting used to again, I agree it's better beep free. The other extreme, Dutch tv and radio - go to a land with no censorship whatsoever! see couples shagging on the tables in restaurants while you eat your tea, hear songs as they are intended to be heard is the best bit but sometimes it just feels like there should be a watershed, like we have here. In a way it's good but sometimes the prude in me likes to save the F and C words for those occasions most befitting.
