Mary Whitehouse wasn't PC, she just wanted TV that anyone could watch at any time. I never agreed with her views much when she was around but we could do with someone like her now to balance what we've got on the box. I dread the day when the TV license in abolished because it will be the absolute death knell for British television and radio. Just look at America if you want a good argument for keeping it.
A BBC producer once said that in his bedside prayers he hoped that Mrs Whitehouse was watching his programmes and stating publicly that the were too violent because it immediately put another 2m on the viewing figures.
Don't confuse the PC Brigade with someone just having a good old rant about something.
