Clifford The Big Red Dog
The 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, who had only recent been forced to leave Robots after 40 minutes due to the scene with the Tom Waits music terrifying his son, demanded more information on these "unkind" moments. Mark 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.
