No, not something we overheard at 'midnight mass' the other night (here generally held around 10pm) but the voiceover on an amateur video shown on Spain's Antena 3 on Christmas Eve - which showed some unfortunate Basque surfer getting wiped out big time and propelled towards jagged rocks by a freak wave off San Seb.
His mate with the camera uttered this suitably profane (and basically untranslateable) exclamation on the tape, which was played back unbleeped on a lunchtime news bulletin. I'd have been surprised if I hadn't heard the Spanish C-word (Coño) used with some frequency on pre-watershed (even Children's) TV over there.
