As UK communications regulator Ofcom's ranking of every bollocking swear word in the English language in order of offensiveness goes viral again, we're bloody buggering thrilled about it.

So, let's remember that back in 2016, after interviewing over 200 people in the UK on how offensive they find words like 'bellend' and 'beef curtains' (yeah, we didn't realise they were swear words either), Ofcom ranked the words as either mild, medium, strong or strongest.

It also published a series of documents and research papers, including a quick reference guide co-produced with IPSOS Mori called Attitudes to potentially offensive language and gestures on TV and radio, which is now doing the rounds again.

Although participants were asked their opinion on 150 words in total, we've listed below the 'general swear words'. Other words people were quizzed on include those linked to race and ethnicity, gender and sexuality, body parts and health conditions and even religious insults.

Here's what Ofcom found, in the 'general swear words' category:

Mild

Arse

Bloody

Bugger

Cow

Crap

Damn

Ginger

Git

God

Jesus Christ

Minger

Sod-off

Erm, after watching Blackadder, we're pretty sure 'sod-off' is a name... Baldrick's first name...
