Cursing on RTE

Our man in Havana · 03-05-2002 10:03am #1

I couldnt belive my ears, yesterday I heard the f word twice at 2pm on RTE 1.

Is there someone I can complain to about this?

GreenHell · 03-05-2002 10:13am

Those bastards, someone better go ****in complaining coz thats no ****ing on at all, bastards!

koneko · 03-05-2002 10:20am

I heard a man say the f word on the street yesterday, it was about 4pm. Maybe I should flog him.

colinsky · 03-05-2002 10:26am

I f****ing hate when those a***holes f***ing swear. Jesus.

I've seen full frontal female nudity in a movie on RTE in the early afternoon... twice. They obviosuly are letting things slip by... luckily

Batfink · 03-05-2002 1:56pm

for **** sake it's in the english dictionary ! It's there for a reason and I find it hard to believe anyone can really think it has any more sinister a meaning than me telling you to get lost as opposed to **** off.

OLDYELLAR · 03-05-2002 2:25pm

fu**n f*ks sake , someone should fu*n tell rte to get some fu*n manners , the miserable fu*n bast**ds !

Are we not allowed to write F uck

And if not why not ?

smoke.me.a.kipper · 03-05-2002 3:25pm

fuck-diddley-fuck-fuck-fuck. see doesnt hurt anyone.

Irish telly seems alot less censored that UK telly. even the austin powers 2 ads on irish telly they had 'shagged' mentioned and shown in the movies logo. in the uk,ads on every channel they cut it out.

(strange also that it was 12's over there and 15's over here.)

EvilGeorge · 03-05-2002 3:50pm

Yeah I'll just type this one up on my invisible typewriter here and send it off to the complaints dept.

koneko · 03-05-2002 3:56pm

EvilGeorge you've been watching waaaay too much of the Simpsons there, Chief Wiggum

Get used to swearing. It's a part of life. Or move to a cave. I hear they're quite nice.

Kolodny · 03-05-2002 3:59pm

Swearing on day time television. Damn inconsiderate if you ask me.

****ers.

Our man in Havana · 03-05-2002 5:17pm

You are all a bunch of flaming muppets.

The Gopher · 03-05-2002 5:28pm

Your the f-ucking muppet Bond.People like you are in charge of the dreaded ITC in Britain,which wages a tireless campaign against violence,sex,swearing,hardcore porn,softcore porn and just about anything else that is mildly interesting.These rules effect us as most of us have UKTV and therefore are nearly starved of this kind of stuff.
Though ive seen the odd Frenchy arthouse things on TG4 with some pretty heavy stuff:) Hardcore often gets through to tv if the film is classsed more as an arty type film.

BLITZ_Molloy · 03-05-2002 6:48pm

I was watching Italian Tv when I was over there last year and they had lesbian sex at 4 in the afternoon.

On French television at 8 o' clock in the morning I was watching a silent sketch program. the presenter guy goes over and kisses his teddy bear on the nose, walks off and the teddy mastrubates... wierd stuff.

Wow. They dont even show that at Night. They show some f**ker in drag for a crappy bingo game :rolleyes:

Jim · 03-05-2002 9:00pm

how many fuucking times to they use the same ****ing joke on telly bingo, about the guy in drags ****ing balls. funk sake!

pauldeehan · 03-05-2002 9:24pm

Well, I'm above all this f***ing childish swearing. To be honest the joke is wearing a little f***ing thin you bunch of ****ers

Winters · 03-05-2002 10:17pm

Then why did you reply. I'de love to know why RTE dont show porn at night!

The_Bullman · 03-05-2002 10:39pm

Yeah hows about instead of showing "a prayer at bedtime" they show "facesitters 4-this time its personal". or maybe a variation on the movie

Mossy Monk · 04-05-2002 4:53am

i blame the church

Elmo · 04-05-2002 5:00am

RTE showed Cramer V crammer in the afternoon once and there is a full frontal in that.

Also at around 7 they showed Die Hard with out editing, uproar there was.

They edit Home and away in Britain, just to make it even worse????

You never get cursing on American TV unless it comes out of HBO.

Cabaal · 04-05-2002 2:29pm

Things could be ALOT worse we could be watching normal films on BBC in which case things would be ****en ****e!

as for American TV, its just really really ****en ****e stuff, can't watch anything on it, to much adverts and well its just plain annoying!

Dont start talking aboot American TV. Thats a whole new thread. It is VERY F***ing annoying though!

Q: All the tax money i pay that is given to RTE....where does it go?

Cabaal · 04-05-2002 3:09pm

I'm proud to say RTE get none of my money

Winters · 04-05-2002 3:33pm

Why not? You either dont live on Ireland or are just screwing the system as much as you can

Cabaal · 04-05-2002 4:58pm

Survey says option #2

Hay its only fair, hardly ever watch RTE, watch Discovery Channel most the time and besides all RTE do show is stupid soaps and Telly Bingo and well maybe its just me but neither are worth paying anything for.

That and the fact that TV3 don't get a penny.

Elmo · 04-05-2002 6:10pm

It is always nice to see people talk about TV3 with such joy, for they invest so much money into the Irish Televisual industry with the likes of Martin King, Ireland AM and the weakest link (Dont forget Twinks Dating show and your man from Talkabout). they are just the best shows in the world, god what would life be like without TV3 who show everything that was on RTE One up until last year and we dont have to give them any money.

Sure RTE should pack up shop so that Sky and Granada can get on with making Irish TV.

Its nice to hear that TV3 dont swear. They're just the bestest in the whole wide world. they give me goose pimples.

Sarcasim is the lost form of wit, did you know that.

Cabaal · 04-05-2002 6:21pm

You were being Sarcastic?
Nooooooooooooo Nevvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrr!

The Gopher · 04-05-2002 10:05pm

On the porn on Irish tv issue theres some film on TV3 tonight which is described in the paper as an"adult drama".Oh ho ho now!:cool: Probably wont be near as good as it sounds but its worth a look i suppose.Maybe we should try a huge email deluge on all 4 tv channels demanding porn.Anybody know some handy adresses?
And wouldnt it be ironic if a thread started to condemn foul language ended up changing late night Irish tv forever?

On that note just apply for tickets for you and your friends to the late late show and when the camera pans the audience... all get up and moon:D

LOL

i remember a few years ago sitting in the pub and there was an extremely raunchy film on. they showed almost everything. one of the lads asked the barman what channel it was and it turned out it was Network 2 :eek: :eek: :eek:
i was highly impressed but there is hardly ever anything like that on
