From what I can gather, R18 material can be shown in adverts, but not in the actual programmes. How will that work, then?? Doesn't that mean that the adverts will automatically be making false cliams, by showing stuff that won't be allowed in the very programme they're advertising?

This post by aceman describes it clearly:

So it is a move forward. But if the normal babe channels remain unencrypted, then such advertising will still not be allowed on them.
