Sir David: TV's too vulgar.We need to go back to the BBC's standards of 1940s
Daily Express
|October 29, 2024

"Blimey, if they were around today!
"The rationale is we've gone the other way. We've superseded it.
"In order to be a working-class person in television today you use the expletives constantly, all the time.
