Anyone who complained to the BBC should be beheaded.

...an extremist Christian decapitating a man with a sword.

Notice how he's an extremist Christian, according to the writer. But Muslims who decapitate Christians are called "freedom fighters." What a f****** double standard!

Oh, those fanatical Christians! Always going around cutting off the heads of moderate Muslims. You read about it in the news almost every day.

The protest to the BBC was that this program depicted their anti-Christian stance YET AGAIN, from what I read on a UK News site.

“depicted an extremist Christian decapitating a man with a sword.”

We all know who does the decapitating in the real World. MUSLIMS! I am disgusted with the people who write this garbage and put it on television for public consumption. They are fools and cowards.

Crusaders, perhaps? I'd call them extremist Christians.

I’ve seen it. The tracker is online.
They’ve dreamed up a right wing Nights Templar group. It’s so lame, not even slightly close to reality.
Though, the head chopping scene was pretty realistic looking.

This is pathetic, even by left-wing television standards. How many hundreds of years back would we have to go to find a Christian sawing off a Muslim’s head? But reality is too politically incorrect for them, so they have to resort to this unrealistic, anti-Christian nonsense. Muslims could slaughter millions of people and liberals would still insist that the conspicuously non-violent Christian faith is just as bad.

The rights and sensibilities of millions must be put aside if even one person complains.

And it had to be Christian villains because the story was about the discovery of the True Cross and the attempts of the bad guy to steal it for himself. the head chopping scene was pretty realistic looking Nah, nowhere near enough blood.
