And I really went with some expletives.

I went like...

Not now, not this pit stop.

And invoking the Lord's name in this case.

And I sort of surprised myself.

And I look at Melroy, my co-commentator, and he was like, okay.

But I was so invested at that point.

But we can really get away with this.

If it's not all the time, it's not good to do this.

There is a certain form of swearing in Dutch where you use diseases, which is completely off limits.

So there are guardrails just miles further than for British commentary.

We can get away with a lot.

But if you turn in a radio show here or a TV program,

You hear swearing non-stop, Dutch movies swearing non-stop.

It is because it reflects how we talk in real life.

So why would we be so careful about it?

But here's the good thing.

I know I'm just talking to a Dutch audience.

Who will otherwise be swearing at me and are swearing at me.

So it's fine.
