One of the core concepts of Blankety Blank used to be that the vast majority of questions would sound like a potential innuendo with the word removed, producing much of the show's humour.
This seems to have been forgotten or discarded in many of the Lily Savage episodes: in this particular instalment, out of eight questions with "blanks", only three could conceivably be misconstrued as having a ruder double meaning. A fourth misses the concept of double entendres entirely by having a question openly allude to sadomasochism even without a word being removed.
