Fireman Sam episode pulled amid Koran row - BBC News

Twitter is, predictably going banannas. But some fucking funny Tweets on there.

I don't get it

A Mattel spokeswoman told the BBC: "It's just an unfortunate incident where someone from the production company thought they were just putting in random text.

There's already a solution for that and it's called lorem ipsum

It's not fucking rocket science - I wouldn't be surprised if someone did this deliberately "for the LOLs"

 

[Manter]

I fucking hate fireman Sam and bloody Norman with his annoying voice. I may ban it on the grounds of racism and feel good about myself rather than a big meany upsetting my small

 

[souljacker]

Proof that if you give a man a uniform, they turn into a fascist.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

I bet it was Elvis' fault, he's a shit fireman.

 

[skyscraper101]

Well I for one am outraged. Where can I watch it to make sure that I am?

It's shite and not a patch on Postman Pat.

Almost as lol as the Tweenies doing Saville impressions.

No you're not to be outraged at the episode, but outraged that they pandered to PC gone madness by pulling it.

What are you fucking mad, it's got to be Norman the stupid shit.

They need to update these shows to reflect our new "public" services, ATOS Aggie or G4 Greg.

I slipped on a page of the Bhagavad Gita yesterday. I think Elvis should apologise for that.

Those glossy oil painting inserts in the copies you got off the Krsnas were an accident waiting to happen. Rama said it until he was blue in the face.

he has become death, destroyer of balance

It's shite and not a patch on Postman Pat.

I am shocked that someone has found the need to censor Fireman Sam, but, I always have been more of a Thomas the Tank type of chap.
Where is Captain Pugwash when you need him or Dougal & Co?

Not as good since they re-affiliated to Labour.

Postman Pat was a scab

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Postman Pat was a scab

He delivers mail by helicopter. That makes up for a lot of shortcomings in my book.

They need to update these shows to reflect our new "public" services, ATOS Aggie or G4 Greg.

They've done that with Postman Pat. There are currently two versions, in one of which he works for a company called SDS. For the benefit of international audiences, I'm guessing.

 

[likesfish]

It was some fuckwit doing it for the lols do doubt and nobody caught it because nobody would think anybody would be that fucking stupid

Which begs the question who the fuck is paying this much attention to fireman sam that they noticed it?

 

[likesfish]

maybe somebody froze it at just the right spot or somebody thought the easter egg was too funny not to share

 

[hash tag]

It just seems like the right place to say that Postman Pat has just died Well Ken Barrie has.

You're right, no Fireman Sam discussion

Absolutely no way will we discuss that there are people with the power to censor television who think that that is something to censor. We are a secular society and Fireman Sam keeps us safe from fires,
