    That's what happens when you buy your German-English dictionary from the Gamma Forest Bookshop.

    I did think it odd at the time that some were speaking in German and others in English. Could some of the soldiers have been timelords speaking Gallifreyan and therefore the Tardis was not abe to provide a translation however hard you concentrated?;)

    I've used it in the pub and had to explain where it comes from. Who knows, maybe it'll catch on.

    Remember "naff" - as in "naff off" and "naffin' hell" - that comes from "Porridge". The writers wanted a "swear word" as the show's set in a prison but it had to be one that could be broadcast in a 7pm sit-com - so they invented one and it took off. I've even had people complain when I used the word "naffin'" on a forum.

    On my second watch of LKH I did think I heard the F word, but thought nah must be something in German. Was wondering if there was going to be any press that commented on it. And look there is!

    For years, there was a popular myth that Jo Grant's line "You can't just scuttle off and leave the Doctor" in Curse of Peladon was really "You can't just b****r off and leave the Doctor". Although as far as I know, nobody complained to the BBC.

    They probably did - but Michael Grade would have told them to naff off.
