I find the term "golly-wog" very offencive, but I also know that this is still a free country and if someone wishes to use that term in a private conversation, they shouldn't lose their jobs over it. Is this the BBC now over reacting thanks to the Jonathan Ross debacle? Maybe the best thing would have been to sack him and a line would have been drawn under the whole issue then.
