BBC-3 was a BBC television programme, devised and produced by Ned Sherrin and hosted by Robert Robinson,[1] which aired for twenty-four hour-long editions during the winter of 1965–1966.
It was the third in a line of weekend satire-and-chat shows, successor to That Was The Week That Was and Not So Much a Programme, More a Way of Life, though David Frost did not participate in this series.
Regular performers included John Bird, Lynda Baron, David Batley, Roy Dotrice, Bill Oddie, and Leonard Rossiter.[1][2][3] Guests included Millicent Martin and Alan Bennett.[2] The musical director was Dave Lee.[1]
Swearing
In the edition of 13 November 1965, during a discussion on theatre censorship in which Robert Robinson and Mary McCarthy also participated, Kenneth Tynan became the first person ever to say "fuck" on British television; he claimed, perhaps disingenuously, that the word no longer shocked anyone.[4] The storm which resulted forced the BBC to make a public apology for Tynan's comments.
