Nicky Campbell asks: Was Radio 1 wrong not to play Ding Dong?

Ding Dong! The Witch Is Dead reaches number two in the charts but isn't played in full on Radio 1. A few seconds is played in a news report instead. A rival song, I'm In Love With Margaret Thatcher, charts at number 35 and is played in full with no explanation. Is this censorship or did the BBC get it right?
