something cursed they had to apologise on the BBC and then it was heard in the background one of the lads were going let's effing do this you know so so I was reading a good bit about cursing do you curse on stage do you yeah I do yeah I reflect on it all the time probably too much when I look back at gigs I go I wish I'd stopped cursing there not from a moral perspective or a kind of like

Yeah, it was interesting because when they started Saturday Night Live UK, one of the things that they remarked upon, because Tina Fey was their first guest, was saying that they can say the F word in the UK, they can't say the F word in America still.

And yet their president is using the F word on his social media company.

So the whole thing is fucked up, really.

Yeah.

It is.

It is.

Yeah, unless you're the president.

We had to look for a dispensation years ago to use the F word in an ad, a road safety ad.

So we had to actually go to the BAI, as it was at the time, now, and ask them, could we use it?

And they said, because of the seriousness of the campaign and everything, yes, we could.

But then I remember I said that the Catholic Church had fucked up Ireland and that made front page news.

Maybe the sentiment as opposed to the effort.

But then the Catholic Church said that they were okay with the sentiment.

It was the use of language that they were upset by.

There you go.

Okay, we have messed up the country, but please don't use the F word.

Do you mean like my brother who used to put it in the middle of words?

Okay.

Ask Bernard anything, Ray at Darcy Daly.
