I will never, ever be shocked by language again after hearing the c-bomb being casually dropped by a presenter on, of all places, Radio 4 on a mid-afternoon weekday slot.
It was shortly after the EU referendum and they were interviewing a Polish worker talking about how attitudes in the workplace had changed and people were openly hostile towards her.*
Interviewer: ‘So there’s even a “vote leave” poster in the staff room, yes?’
Woman: ‘There is, yes.’
I: ‘And on it, someone had written “come on Britain, get the c***s out,” is that correct?’
W: ‘That’s right, yes.’
I: ‘And how did that make you feel?’
… etc. I was like, wait, did that actually just happen?
(* – I think it was a woman, I can’t actually remember now but we’ll go with it for the sake of narrative.)
