giles_23_bcfc Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Now i'm sure everyone on here knows the missing word is "faggot". We all know that line from the song, but do we know what the song sounds like with the word "faggot" bleeped out?Well, avid listeners of Radio 1 since last Thursday will or already do, as bosses at Radio 1 (the only radio station in the UK i believe) have ordered that word to be edited/bleeped out so that it doesnt affect others.NOW this is political correctness gone mad!

Redhyde Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 It's not banned on any other bbc station. It's a publicity stunt from the beeb and Moyles. Complete nonsense story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complete nonsense story.Its a pity Kenny Everett's no longer with us & at the Beeb - he'd have given Moyles what for & probably have shoved it up his a*** good & proper at the same time!

WhistleHappy Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Great news, this evening, alls well that ends well... After spending all afternoon sending 27 emails, making 8 phonecalls, & texting 22 times to various producers, dj's, radio shows & departments of the BBC I eventually succeeded in getting the Radio One restriction on 'Fairytale' overturned. I'm pleased to announce (in case you missed the news) that 'faggot' is on the Beebs menu again & the 'slut' is back doing what she does best!

Mr Mosquito Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 You cant beat a good fairytale, eh? It was the thought that counted. Hard to believe that the 'politically correct' vexatious complainants have stooped so low as to want to rewrite that great Xmas song as sung by the great artist that was Kirsty MacColl.

Complete nonsense story.What has Moyles got to do with it? As he previously fell foul of gay rights campaigners for suggesting a ringtone was 'gay', I'd be surprised if he wanted to offer any opinion on this either way.Did he try to justify the initial ban on his show?

"Relax" by Frankie goes to Hollywood was banned and became a best seller as a result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moyles was against bleeping the word out as were most of the DJ's. Hence why, along with all the people who text, emailed and phoned in complaining, the main boss reversed the decision.
