is the next line of that limerick, but it doesn't scan very well, so I can see why Fry chose to leave it out.

As a medical diagnosis, pedophilia or paedophilia is a psychiatric disorder in persons 16 years of age or older typically characterized by a primary or exclusive sexual interest toward prepubescent children (generally age 11 years or younger, though specific diagnostic criteria for the disorder extends the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13)

so not a limerick about paedophilia then but Ephebophilia

Notes on a Scandal and The History Boys are equally offensive, also many items of Greek and Roman pottery.

What we should do is hide this trait of humans, keep it secret, so that priests and boarding school headmasters can continue in secret. What we must never do is use humour to break through social taboo and thus create a cathartic environment of free discussion.

It happens so not a complete failure. It could have only been discovered after you ripped the fitting down. Frustrating but not a total disaster. Good luck fixing it.

I will confess to really taking my time to double check absolutely everything before I try as failure would be a daily event.

Yes she clearly was having an off day. The outfit could be hiding something but the hair and make up are off the scale.
