3 was bad 4 is absolute drivel, the plonker that played henry has just made my actors to punch on sight list.
season 1 was ok 2 not bad but 3 and 4 are up there with the worst tv ever made. thank **** its over, the last episode was as bad and cliched as the very worst of us tv. at least 1 and 2 had the bonus of frequent romps to keep my interest season 4 had only 1 redeming factor......the end credits and the hope that they will never attempt another series

The girl-next-door that Kevin Spacey fancies in 'American Beauty' uses it two or three times to a couple of her mates.

I must admit I don't really understand why some swear words are more offensive etc. Generally the air around me is blue but people hardly notice as they are just dropped into everyday conversations and I don't emphasize them- just my limited vocabulary!
But really how offensive is it to call some one a willy ( knob, cock, dick)or fanny (pussy, ******, twat) or someone who has sex (you f**ker, mother f**ker) or someone who is gay (poof, arse bandit etc)?? Calling some one a sh1t is more so as I don't like sh1t. But the others really don't bother me. The most offencive one would be ponce, as obviously its not a nice meaning. Why people get so upset about ****** I have no idea...
I remember at school when swear words were dramatic- you knob jockey, you dick weed, and various other ones I can't recall but we certainly didn't go around calling each other f**kers!

The Yanks I have met (granted, the majority are Texans) absolutely detest the word ******. Guys and Girls....

...was a really nasty way to die, hadn't ever really thought about what it involved before, but someone has just been executed in this way on the tudors...must say, it made the beheading afterwards look like a breeze...
that old henry was a mean vindictive sod, wasn't he...
what's the worse way to die by execution do you reckon...?

For sheer pain factor being burnt at the stake is probably the worst (after being married to the wrong woman of course

Most of these methods are extinct though - it's interesting to note that the countries that still use brutal methods of execution are almost entirely Islamic...I think that's what you get when you have a legal system that reputes divine origin and is therefore immutable...

What about being sawed in half. Have seen this method many times in books and in museums etc. Basically the person being executed is hung upside down with his legs spread. Then a giant two man saw is used by two people located on either side of the condemed person and they proceed to saw the condemed person in half, starting at the anus and making their way slowly and agonisingly through the stomach and chest and up towards the head. The agony is compounded by the fact that the person is upside down so the blood drains towards the vital organs, prolonging the agony.

but ponce...that's not in the slightest bit offensive as far as i'm aware...i know it has various meanings, but it's used in the context of every day convo, "can i ponce a ciggie", "can i ponce a fiver"...
