Do we tolerate swearing too much? TV and movie stars have been getting in trouble recently for gratuitious bad language. A Labour MP has called for an Ofcom investigation after Gordon Ramsay used the F-word 240 times during just one episode of his latest show. Actor Christian Bale has been caught on tape launching into a foul-mouthed tirade against a colleague on the set of the new Terminator film. And Jonathan Ross has continued to use swear words on his TV show following his recent three-month suspension. Whether it's on TV or on the street, do you find bad language offensive, or is it just a natural evolution of our language? Graham Stewart takes your calls, texts and emails.
