The fact that Freeview equipments can't do this "in one go" and a tiny proportion of them have no parental control at all was one of Ofcom's main reasons for wanting to block the babe channels from Freeview. If the ultra-tame current content gets their knickers in a twist, what chance for anything stronger?

Yeah, odd on that. Ofcom went against their own recommendation and allowed something they said they were categorically against. Never quite understood why.

dibs, it's only the petition that's closing, not the channels. The channels will be unaffected... unfortunately.

what i dont get is who complains? there cant be many guys around who find the female genitalia offensive, nor many women, and surely in these days of liberty shows should be free to broadcast as they see fit, if people find it offensive they aren't forced to watch it! its f**kin ridiculous!

I think it was the babe channels reporting each other. Now the girls can't even touch each other without being told off by the producers. I wish I had a time machine go back to the good old days. I'm into the less is more thing but now we get nothing
