Elsewhere: Britian bans aussie ad

Monday, April 9, 2007 at 12:17am

British regulators have forced a small change in an Australian Tourism ad because they object to the term “bloody”.  Apparently, it’s a mild swear word in that version of English.  You can see the full ad in Window Media or QuickTime, but if you’re offended by that word, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Due to the weird Aussie accent and the fact that I was paying too much attention to the nice looking, bikini clad, beach babe, I hardly noticed anything that she said, and I certainly wasn’t offended by it.
