Swearing with Olivia Colman and Jessie Buckley

Available for over a year

In the spring of 1920, the House of Commons scheduled a debate on one of the most pressing issues facing the country at that time - who was behind the slew of profane letters being sent to well respected members of a community. For months, Littlehampton, a small seaside town in Sussex, had been alight with rumours over who was sending sweary and scandalous letters. A well-respected, pillar-of-the-community Christian, Edith Swan pointed the finger at Irish foul-mouthed neighbour Rose Gooding. The showdown between the two neighbours is the basis for period comedy drama Wicked Little Letters, starring Olivia Colman as Edith and Jessie Buckley as Rose. In this episode of 5 Minutes On, the BBC's Culture reporter Yasmin Rufo talks profanity and the 'original trolling' with the cast of the new British comedy. (Image credit: PA)
