Don`t Mention The Word "Pig"

I have to say, this article instantly made me think of the scene in the immortal Fawlty Towers tv show where Basil hisses at his staff, "Don`t mention the War" when a party of Germans arrive at his hotel.

So children can no longer perform the original Roal Dahl`s story of Little Red Riding Hood which included the three little pigs of fairy tale fame, and the pigs have been changed into puppies in case they offend some members of the community.
Even the local Imam said he feels it is not necessary.

Sigh.
