Teletubbies under investigation LOL

[superstar911]

This has to be the funniest news story of the year.

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/entertainment/tv-film/tv-news/2009/02/20/even-teletubbies-not-exempt-as-bbc-checks-old-shows-for-offensive-material-86908-21137803/

Political correctness gone mad, what is wrong with the world these days. I watched Teletubbies all the time a a child, they don't even talk so how can they swear?


If you happened to get today's Daily Star there is a better article about it in there, the link was the first one I could find when I typed it into google news.

[efq]

Thats pathetic and people get payed to do this. Silly and a waste of money.
I loved watching it though :D

[Jahova]

It was good, how stupid though ;S

[Moh]

I never watched the teletubbies when I was younger. I must have been around 6/7 when they came out lol.

Nothing beats Postman Pat, Fireman Sam etc..

[Kardan]

Teletubbies isn't under investigation at all, they're just checking all programs over, so if teletubbies are under investigation, all programs are.

[Fifteen]

I used to LOVE teletubbies :D Po was my fav.

..wow, what is the world coming to..

[Jord]

lmao they cant speak how can they swear

[GommeInc]

I never liked Teletubbies, it came around just as young kids shows were uninteresting to watch (Ed Edd and Eddy, Dexters Lab, Sabrina etc came into fashion). I can see them question films like Tarzan, if they edited Bambie to remove distressing scenes, then they'll have a field day with Tarzan! When the baby gorilla and Tarzan's parents die - they are particularly sad moments :(

Also, Animaniacs is riddled with laughable filth, but that's rarely on TV now so may not need to be questioned.

jesus what ********! why are they checking stuff that hasn't been used in years? its a waste of time imo. Does it really matter if there is a bit of adult humour in a cartoon? the child won't get the joke so it doesn't harm them and the adult can enjoy a bit of humour while looking after a child

[Hazza]

Its been and gone, why worry about it now? There's mor important things happening in the world :|

[Sarah]

I used to love this program.
Lala ftw.

[Juelz]

lmao oh dear ;s

[Influix]

Lol that's pointless. They don't have anything else to do, that's why.

Po ftw!

[Cwmbran]

Thats pathetic and people get payed to do this. Silly and a waste of money.
I loved watching it though :D
I would not watch Teletubbies if someone paid me too.

I was like the only kid in my school who was not fascinated by it, it actually sucked and still does I hope the BBC burn all the tapes.

[N-Dubz]

***** if no1s complained y r they checkin bk??? making trouble for themselves???

telletubbies cant even speak tho the best thing about it was that ******* annoying hoover fing that used 2 b wif them.

[Kipp]

Lmao, i'm lol'ing so hard.

[Eight.]

... Postman Pat Postman Pat and his black and his cat! Ahh, Those days! Still best checking though.

[Suspective]

Naughty Noo Noo FTW

lol - Exactly the teletubies cant even talk and its not like there going to be holding a can of beer or having sex

[Melsia]

are being checked for swearing, drinking, product placement and other offensive behaviour.

I'm sorry but the Teletubbies don't talk, and I'm sure they don't drink alcohol... I'm sure if they were offensive in any way parents would have complained!

[kk.]

best job in the world!


Every old television show repeated on BBC channels is being watched by an executive producer to make sure they don't break standards.

[Hushie]

Teletubbies can talk! >:(

[Herman]

Aww, my favourite teletubbie was Lala :) And they do talk! Just simple things like 'ello' and 'bye bye' :8
