bbc radios 1 bosses have tonight made their agreement to censor the word " faggot " from the 20 year old " fairytale of new york " song by the pogues . the initial censoring of the song caused controversy recently as the song had been played for 20 cycles for censoring , and resulted in most people contacting the bbc talking the decision was " ridiculous " . the ban was also ridiculed for the thought that it only applied to the 1 and not to george 2 or any other frequency on the bbc radio .
"Fairytale of New York" does not contain the word "faggot".
