Was Steptoe and Son seen as a family show? I only ask because I just noticed in the episode "Men Of Letters", Harold and Albert are playing Scrabble and we get a good few seconds close-up of the board which, amongst other words, has "nipple, tit, rape, spunk, cock, and vibrators. WTF? 
Clip here. 1:30 in. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAyBhNFgDtU&eurl=http%3A%2F%2F

quality, well spotted.
You obviousky forgot Jamie and his Magic Cock.
Screen cap for you:
Nicely inserted into the original.
Notice they're all double entendres, clever guys so they could argue they weren't being rude.

No, I think it's genuine - bit about it here http://www.albertandharold.co.uk/43.html
N.B. is anyone else watching STNG? It's the one with 4 lights.

I think someone's cut that in. I can't be real.
This has always been a favourite Steptoe bit for me. I'm particularly drawn to the word 'Privit', for some reason!

Aaron will know for sure. Come on Aaron, is this real or what? And if so, HOW??
It's definitely real, I remember seeing it as a kid and being taken aback somewhat ( and highly amused, natch).
I just think it's rather uncharacteristic for Galton and Simpson. If it was a bit of innuendo I think it's more believable but being that rude, well I just not sure.

The point, surely, is that it's in character for Albert Steptoe.
Remember that Albert Steptoe used to act in 'what the butler saw' porn movies when he was younger.
