They hadn't thought of it then Jane. Before the internet gave everybody ideas.

They did that with that other lot - don't marry her, f--- me.

Was Doris Day's Move over Darling ever banned?
It was just as 'suggestive' (one if our favourite words at school) as Lets Spend the Night Together but I don't think it was.

well I've just read that with Lets Spend the Night Together it was OK if the words were changed to Lets Spend Some Time Together!!!

Banning - they wouldn't play it at all. Censoring - they would dub some of the words.

Whom are you propositioning, bluebell? wink

j08 Fri 12-Apr-13 17:34:56

What's the difference then?

bluebell Fri 12-Apr-13 17:33:20

Ooops - need to differentiate between banning and censoring.
