I love the fact that Andrew Marr repeated it again later after being so determined not to.

Which makes me wonder.... why are you Brits so sensitive about it? You aren't the US of A, are you? Everyone knows Americans go completely nuts over any of those x-words, but you Brits?!

What's so bad about them anyways? I use them all the time, especially the "f-word" and the Dutch version of the "c-word" (pretty much the same, only without the n and with a k instead of a c). What's wrong with that?

F word, not so bad, S, also not so bad, but there's a few words that strike a cord, and the C word is one of them. After all, Damn and Bloody were considered extremely bad form on UK broadcasting even thirty years ago.
