But you wouldn't know how many times it had been deleted Frank.

Bait Box hasn't had an 'over 18's' stipulation for a long time, as it is unworkable, and yes you can see far worse on TV every day. But I haven't seen worse (or anything like it) on any of the British made angling programmes.
As I said right at the start, I thought the picture was just that half a step too far, and if it had been someone else's head photoshopped on it, rather than mine, I would have felt even more that it overstepped the line. The fact that it was me made it more difficult for me to delete it as I have no doubt there will be those who believe I can't take a joke. Well, if that's the case then so be it, but they'd be wrong.
