In what alternative universe sits the BBFC moron who decided that the phrase, 'contains strong language in a speech therapy context' enlightens the nervous viewer enough for them to make a reasoned choice about whether or not they should watch the film and risk being offended? Strong language is strong language. Surely if you're going to be upset by the word fuck the context is irrelevant? It also begs a question about the intellectual arrogance, the condescension that is involved in the notion that one group of adults feel they have the right, nay the moral duty, to censor films before other adults can safely watch them. Definition of being patronised please someone?
