What's the significance of "Bamforth" ?

? He and McGill were the top artists of this genre!! And both fell foul of the obscenity laws then, with cards such as this one - my all time favourite McGill (yes, I've posted it before, but hey, it's effin' brilliant)

1/. If someone says a swear word, in the heat of the moment they didn't mean, they might say "Sorry, it slipped out"

I think it was the innocent explanation that they missed, Herc!
