 HAHAHA, exactly - "as far as you know". You haven`t even seen it, the same 
 as all the other nutter`s that were up in arms about it. It was shown at 
 around 11pm FFS, the people protesting over this were the sort of people I 
 abhore. I`m an adult and can decide for myself what I want to watch at that 
 time of night and as a non christian it didn`t offend me in the slightest. 
 Plenty of warnings were given as to the content, if you thought it was the 
 sort o t hing that was going to offend you don`t watch it! Don`t try and 
 force your opinions and religions on to me and dictate what I can and cannot 
 watch. For what it`s worth, I thought it was pretty crap anyway!
