Fairytale of New York censored!

    BBC Radio 1 has said it will stand by its ban on the word "****" from the Pogues' 1987 Christmas hit Fairytale of New York to avoid offence.
    The word, sung by the late Kirsty MacColl as she trades insults with Shane MacGowan, has been dubbed out.

    What a disgrace!

    Yeah, that sucks. Maybe they should change name from BBC to BPC.
