UK Censorship of The Big Bang Theory

The Big Bang Theory has been heavily censored in UK airings of the show, due to different TV guidelines. Lots of lines or even entire scenes are removed to allow the show to air in primetime hours on E4.

General Cuts
Often lines that are too inappropriate, sexual, or contain profanity are removed. The words "Bitch and "Bastard" are almost always removed.

"Pilot"

 * TBA

"The Big Bran Hypothesis"

 * Sheldon's line "Ah, gravity, thou art a heartless bitch" is shortened to simply, "Ah, gravity."
 * Penny's reaction when she finds the cleaned apartment is almost entirely cut. Her line, "Son of a bitch!" is shortened to simply "Son...", and her line, "You sick, geeky bastards!" is cut entirely.
 * TBA

"The Dead Hooker Juxtaposition"
TBA
 * All references to hookers are removed. Strangely enough the title isn't changed.

Season 3
TBA

"The Desperation Emanation"
TBA
 * Sheldon's line, "Oh, yes, it’s time for me to make love to your daughter’s vagina." was cut.
 * Sheldon's line, "Agreed. Amy, I find myself wondering if we should actually engage in coitus at least one time in our relationship. Bazinga." is entirely cut out.

"The Infestation Hypothesis"

 * Three minutes of this episode are cut. The entire scene of Leonard and Priya having cybersex is removed. The episode goes from Penny scaring Sheldon with the cushion straight to Amy playing the harp in her apartment. This renders the episode just fifteen minutes long.

"The Pulled Groin Extrapolation"

 * Amy's line, "...in this dress, the perfect combination of Madonna and whore." is shortened so the line cuts off after "in this dress".

"The Stag Convergence"
TBA
 * Sheldon's line, "And the first woman you ever disappointed sexually. Ba-da-bazinga!" is removed.

Season 6
TBA

Season 7
TBA

"The Comic Book Store Regeneration"
TBA
 * Penny's "Son of a bitch!!" is removed.

"The Valentino Submergence"
TBA
 * Howard's line, "Son of a bitch, he bit me!" is shortened to simply "He bit me!"
