We've had surprise swearing and great swearing but whose potty mouths turn you off a show? Ramsey and Jamie Oliver for starters......

fucking time too. Thou who expects to tune into Ramsay after this long and not hear his tourettes is beyond me.
I like the fella n his passion though. Its old Jamie 'Who Art In Heaven' that I can't stick
Rambo - yes
lispy twat - nope
I adore the Kitchen Nightmare shows (great TV, 'appointment TV' for me and a coupla mates. I also like Shug Fear and Dynamite's River Frottage stuff.
Fuckin' ace fuckin' telly! Fucker.
The ultimate series for 'Rambo'...
Dressed in combat trousers and boots and carrying a machine gun, the bare chested and headscarfed Ramsay has to break into a heavily fortified farm to kill the animals he needs for that night's recipe. At the end of series one he triumphantly hauls a cow past several deceased farm hands whilst singing 'Meat Is Murder' by The Smiths.
Why do you think that Sister Wendy is never on TV any more?
Foul mouthed old cow, she was....
Fuck off.
Just fuck the fucking fuck off.
Billy Connolly
Once he was a marvel, now he is just all fuck and no funny.
Can I be controversial and say...
... Jon Stewart?
Basically I can't see the point of swearing if its going to be bleeped out anyway. If you want to emphasize genuine outrage don't bleep it out. If swearing is integral to the joke don't bleep it out. If you know its going to be bleeped out then don't bother to swear, it's just tedious.
Also Jonathan Ross. You don't do it on the radio so don't do it on telly. And if you must, don't bleep it out. We know what you're saying you tedious man.
Is the swearing on the Daily Show
bleeped out in the US broadcasts? I only watch it via More4 and assumed the bleeping and blurring of words was down to the pre watershed showing.
