I loved you, so I drew these tides of men into my hands and wrote my will across the sky in stars to earn you Freedom. - T.E. Lawrence
All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act out their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.

It is a really strange phrase for the British censors to take umbrage at...I mean "bloody hell" is almost polite, dare I say "posh" langauge in most English Pubs.
Indy: No its not. It's swearing. And not language that should be used in front of young children.
I love Australia, and am very very fond of quite a few Australians but I understand why the advert has been censored and I agree with them.
But then again, I rarely if ever swear so thats probably swayed my thinking.
Its swearing only by the broadest stretch..to be honest you will here the term bloody hundreds on times a day in oz
oops can't bloody spell ..hear not here...hundreds of times
I am an Aussie, and I swear far too much. I don't have a problem with the bloddy, but that it makes us look very ockerish, and I cringe at that. Let the fabulous scenery do the talking.
It certainlly stirred up the media down here; fair bit of pommy bashing.
The thing that got me was the Government got so worked up about it they sent a Governement Minister to the UK to plead the case. pleeeeaaaaase
