The BBC 'f*** request form'

Has political correctness tipped the balance and gone just a little too far at the BBC? Former head of comedy Jon Plowman reckons that show makers now have to fill in a "f*** request form" if they want to use the F word in jokes, reports the Sun. "You ask the channel controller for a f*** – obviously in the nicest possible way – and they decide on the number of Fs they give you," he says.
