Dragged v Drug, and Programme v Program.

Graham from Bucklands Beach

I googled the following after watching several American crime programmes on TV: The recognized and correct past tense form of the verb drag is dragged. Drug can still sometimes be heard, but only in certain dialects within the United States. In the US, "program" is used for everything. Americans do not use "programme." In the UK, a TV show or a collection of projects is a "programme," but "program" is used as a verb and for anything related to computers.
