In 99% of situations, it wouldn't even raise an eyebrow.

:-DD
Except when described as bloody and are actually covered in it !
Those that prepare their own from paddock to plate think nothing of it.

* I'm on the VERY HIGH sensitivity side, as regards stuff like this. So, DON'T worry too much about me complaining about it
* Bloody H***, is the REALLY bad one. Although even that, is probably not considered too bad these days, I suspect

Bloody oath, too bloody right mate, you said it.
You wouldn't survive in Australia.
It's even in our official government tourism commercials!
Don't worry, I ignore everyone who complains about my speech as a matter of course. Well, actually, if anything it makes me want to do it more ;D[/list]

There use to be on British Television, comedy programmes, (made by UK people, for UK people), making fun of how the British are, with things like swear words, and attitudes to other things.
At the end of the day, it is an 'Engineering' channel, for mainly engineers. So, it should be acceptable.
I'm not 100% sure, but I think some of the engineering channels, are considerably worse.

Interesting video, but it still doesn't answer the question of why Brymen installed an underrated SIBA 400mA fuse instead of a more appropriate 630mA one, in their 600mA range multimeter?
The ASTM fuse is built to UL248 standard, which means it has to blow within one hour at 135% of nominal current.
The SIBA fuse has to comply with IEC 60127, which stipulates that it must not open for one hour at 150% of nominal current.
That should explain why the SIBA fuse lasts a lot longer at 600mA than the ASTM unit.
It is still a mystery as to how a SIBA fuse could comply with both standards at the same time.
