I think its ridiculous. In the UK the word ****** usually means a meat product, its hardly ever used here as a derogatory 'gay' term.
Besides, the song is a classic, and should not be messed around with just because of political correctness. Its like removing the word 'gay' from all pre-1960's literature.
In my experience, gays have more important things to worry about than a harmless song.

1) It wasn't the whole of the BBC, just Radio 1, even Radio 4 were playing the whole version.
2) They have reversed the decision
3) It was stupid

You're only permitted 'free speach' if you're considered to belong to one of the supposed minority groups.
