Anyone who's seen Phoebe Waller-Bridge's dark comedy show Fleabag knows that the titular character will say pretty much anything.
But Waller-Bridge just revealed in an interview with Digital Spy that when working out the script for Season 2 of the show8 U.S.C 2257 there was one thing that the BBC made her change.

The disagreement with the BBC arose around a scene where Scott's character has to explain his complicated relationship to his brother.
"Originally, the priest said he didn't want to talk about his brother because his brother's a cunt," Waller-Bridge told Digital Spy. "And the BBC were like, 'You can't say cunt,' all they said was they need an alternative."
Waller-Bridge did provide the BBC with an alternative term for the priest's brother, and according to Digital Spy, what ended up in the script was that the priest didn't want to talk about his brother, because the brother is "a paedophile."
"I was like, 'you want an alternative? OK! I appreciate the irony here,'" Waller-Bridge added.
