Bleep help us

Hilarious story in the paper today about a young man who was asked to remove all profanity and blasphemy from the film The Queen to make it suitable for showing in-flight (don't ask).

He is either extremely dim or used a film version of search and replace because passengers were left to ponder on seven bleeps where the word God should have been, including one 'bleep bless you, ma'am.'

I hope he also edited the news coverage of George W's 'what a state the nation's in' speech, which presumably now ends with a rousing 'And may bleep bless America.'

I saw the film on the plane and its true! I thought we were now not able to have any religion prioritized over another in the air!
