I was really surprised by "bloody brilliant" from the first time I heard it in the 
trailer. Back in the Dark Ages when I lived in London, no child would have said 
that in front of an adult, much less a teacher. Is it possible this did not appear 
in the UK film? I did check the book [UK version], and "bloody" 
[except for the Baron] is NOT used. Of course, it's also possible that times 
have changed... ;)

any thoughts, Aberforth's Goat? others?
