This is in reply to comments about the use of "bloomin'" and "bloody" in My Fair Lady: On stage "bloody" is definitely used, however, the cast recording opted not to use that word, as did the movie. "Bloody" was not a widely heard phrase in America at that time, so I don't believe it was a shocked; in England it is as common as dirt and also would not have been a shocked. It was many years later that I learned that "bloody" was a vulgar word, and used it sometimes. I guess that might explain why so many people thought I was British!
