Virgin Media's electronic programme guide's filter has gone into overdrive.

Over recent days, subscribers to the firm's TV and radio services have been offered the highlights of the "Manchester City v A***nal" game and "Jarvis C**ker's Sunday Service".

Meanwhile, movie lovers could tune into The 39 Steps, a "Hitchc**k remake".

In a statement, a Virgin Media spokeswoman said: "The altered titles have been swiftly an*lysed and we're fixing any remaining glitches."

I thought that the VM response was one of the best things I have ever seen a company 'say'.

Its a shame that their customer service always tends to be as laughable.

I'm never sure if swearing is acceptable around teenagers who watch 15 and 18 films. So I give them beer instead.

For years I've had problems ordering stuff on-line as many suppliers' systems reject my full address, so I now leave out the name of the suburb in which I live, i.e. Chorlton-cum-Hardy.
