Counterintuitively, when the scripts had to pass the censor, the writers had to use more skill to get jokes on air.

The Paul Temple stories are chockablock with similarly outmoded views of the world. The villains are either East End ruffians or ghastly foreigners. Temple's wife is shielded from any unpleasantness that might upset her vulnerable feminine nature. Then, quelle surprise, she goes against type, confronts danger and very nearly solves the mystery by herself.
I suggest Durbridge bingo. Every time Temple's car is blown up or almost run off the road, we score points. Likewise, whenever Temple and wife take a break to the countryside, only to stumble upon the villains' secret hiding place, more points.
They're literally warning get us to be ready to take offence.
I'd rather make my own mind up whether to be offended or not
