No, there is nothing in the show that approaches either profanity or obscenity. The worst it gets is the Trunchbull's refrain that children are "filthy, revolting maggots." Matilda was designed for a family audience... and beyond that, incorporating cruder vocabulary would be out of keeping with the spirit of Dahl's original.
