I think there's cases where there is genuine offence, times do change.. E.g the classic Dam Busters film. One of the pilots has a black dog named with the N word. Its been changed. I don't see a problem with that, doesn't detract from the film and better than not showing it all. It should be the exception rather than the rule to change things though.
Warnings like TP give about programmes/films reflecting language of the time, seem fair enough to me. Unless there is a genuine major issue of offence like the above example.
As for 'woke'- like 'gammon' its a term designed to provoke a response. Its become a bit boring....
