The BBC lost their mojo on comedy from the past

The BBC will delete all scenes from the past, including Dads Army, Faulty Towers, On The Buses and others that used offensive use of words. :( :evil:


I think we've gone crazy in the UK. What's going on ?. Have the BBC just left the party with Boris Johnson.

Glad all the old classics are all on DVD's. ;)

Radio 4 Noni from what I can make out. I didn’t watch all of it. If they started cutting the actual tv shows then less reason to watch the channel

I don't think you'll see repeats of Till Death Us Do Part again on the BBC? :lol: :shock:

Mind you,like Love Thy Neighbour,it was Alf and Eddie who were made to look ignorant and stupid.

Although an ITV show I believe are just as fucking bad
You won’t see Love thy Neighbour again far too much use of the word “honky”

(Seeks counselling)

Only on radio version, from what I saw. But as I say, didn’t watch all the way through

The trouble today is people are far too afraid of upsetting the woke cunts. Soon we'll have fuck all left to be entertained with.
