Scenes from Pygmalion written by the British playwright George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950) and opened at His Majesty's Theatre, London, on April 11, 1914, featuring Mrs Patrick Campbell as Eliza Doolittle, Edmund Gurney as Alfred Doolittle and Sir Herbert Tree as Professor Higgins.
This Sketch dubbed it Bernard Shaw's 'naughty word play' as Eliza utters the word "bloody" which had never been used on the stage.
