# Clifford The Big Red Dog



The [BBFC](BBFC)'s guidance on Clifford The Big Red Dog - a 60-foot hound who is so loved by Emily that he grows to the extent that his owners have to move house - said that it contained moments where "people do unkind things, but those moments are fleeting". [Simon Mayo](Simon_Mayo), who had only recent been forced to leave Robots after 40 minutes due to the scene with the [Tom Waits](Tom_Waits) music terrifying his son, demanded more information on these "unkind" moments. [Mark](Mark_Kermode) kept trying to reassure him that they really were only fleeting and that no-one involved really means it, but Simon pressed and pressed until Mark snapped and conceded he had forgotten to mention the scene where Clifford is disembowled with a chainsaw.
