This was not a good idea to watch before going to bed, because now I'm rather irate.

Just a bit.

I really, really hope there's some sort of valid reason for this censorship, or I will be beyond irate. I wonder if BBC's given a reason for this ( Read more... )

Yes, I love you when you rant. ;) I'd seen the vid before, but for some reason never watched it and noticed what had been omitted. Kinda' a big deal to just leave out, HUH BBC?

I love Clue. I need to go watch that movie this weekend.

You TOTALLY just reminded me of an episode of Gundam Wing that was censored in America. Relena Peacecraft is ranting on and on about war and the wrongs in the world and Dorothy tells her, "You're so passionate, I love you when you're like this!" But Cartoon Network cut out the word "you" in the daytime showing, but put it back in for the midnight showing. I guessed that's because if there was a show where one girl said to another the words "I love you" it might turn children gay, but if you show it after midnight when all the kids are in bed (LOL) then only adults would hear it and they know better than to Turn Gay.

You made me want to watch Clue, too! I used to be obsessed with that movie when I was a kid, and it was the start of my crush on Tim Curry. ^_^

Cookie for you! :D It's just a guess, but I'd bet they censored it because then ZOMG what would they (American g'vmt) use to incite our fear to let them do whatever the hell they want.

Oh noes, BBC....::shakes head:: I tend to really trust them.

Do you read this? It's my favorite/best political blog out there :)

Yeah, I tend to trust BBC more, too, so I'm not happy to learn about that.

Thanks for the link, I hadn't seen that blog yet. :D

All right, now you've done it, I went and broke out my pro-choice bible smack argument and signed the petition. That is one pissed off person, but I can't say I disagree on any particular (though obsecenity ridden) point.

Oh, BBC.... Only news other than Stewart and Colbert I trust... How could you?

Also, stop giving me links. I get pissed off, and then look what you make me do!
