Erin Doherty, known for her role in The Crown, used strong language during a radio interview on BBC's Today program while promoting her new Netflix series, Adolescence. She discussed pretentious language among actors, surprising listeners. Co-star Stephen Graham joined in, expressing his desire to use similar language. The BBC has guidelines on offensive language, but it can be aired if contextually justified. The network has not confirmed if any complaints were received regarding the segment.
