I noted with interest that the video clip of a BBC news item featuring
the Chancellor of the Exchequer carried the warning "GUIDANCE: This
video contains some strong language"
I can only assume that this referred to the expression "pissed off".
Does this count as "strong language" these days?
Not to me, although "Adams Family Values", which I've been watching
this afternoon, can be viewed as harmless fun, as a clever commentary
on people's attitudes towards death, or as an obscene play, I suppose.
Also, it may be a publicity gimmick, to attract a larger, or a
particular kind (plebeian) of audience.
