Oxford Comma Wars! Last Stand of the Double Space After a Period! Which Words Really Should Be Capitalized!

I'm surprised how passionate I feel about all of these!

Which is why I love Great British Bake-Off, people rarely cry, though some crack under self-induced stress--but then one of the comic-relief hosts goes over and comforts them! The judges just give people stern looks. No one yells.

I heard (maybe it was here?) that apparently if someone has a real meltdown, Mel and Sue will stand around them swearing, so the producers can't use the footage.

If that's not true, it's the best urban legend ever, because it's told everywhere.

That almost qualifies as a British tradition now. Jon Pertwee, when he was playing the Third Doctor, had advice for his coworkers. Reshoots were expensive, so no matter how bad a take was, if it was at all usable they'd go on. Pertwee told Caroline John and Katy Manning, if they were unhappy with their performance and needed a retake, they should swear on camera. Best way to render it unusable and force a reshoot.
