my mum is a nurseand she once looked after the chap who wrote the scripts for the Clangers. In one of the episodes a character bangs his head and was scripted to say 'bloody hell', even though they had the whistle for a voice this line still got censored by the BBC.

If anyone needs looking after, it's the bloke who wrote the scripts for the Clangers.
