Ofcom Discussion

Ofcom published a warning to broadcasters in this weeks bulletin

Note to Broadcasters
Daytime chat and adult chat television services
Recent complaint assessments and investigations1 about television channels promoting
telephone chat services have highlighted concerns about the sexual nature of content on
some of these services. This note reminds broadcasters responsible for such services of
Ofcom’s guidance on daytime and adult chat services.
Channels promoting audience interaction through premium rate services are subject to the
BCAP Code as they are long-form advertising services. The BCAP Code contains rules that
ensure audiences, including children, are protected from material that may cause them harm
or is offensive.
Ofcom’s guidance published in July 2013 states that channels offering ‘daytime chat’ and
‘adult chat’ services must be placed within the ‘adult’ or similarly identified section of a
platform’s electronic programme guide. The guidance also clearly sets out what Ofcom
considers to be acceptable to broadcast on these services, both before and after the
watershed.
During daytime chat content, presenters’ dress and behaviour should be non-sexual in tone
and apparent intent. Therefore, presenters should wear clothing that adequately covers their
bodies (in particular their breasts, genital areas and buttocks). Presenters should not wear
revealing underwear, swimwear, gym wear or fetish clothing.
Between 21:00 and 05:30 on cable and satellite platforms and midnight and 05:30 on
terrestrial platforms, broadcasters may promote adult chat services. Adult chat broadcasters
should ensure that the transitions to more adult material at 21:00, and from adult chat to
daytime chat at 05:30, are not unduly abrupt. For example, no shots of bare breasts should be
broadcast before 22:00. Additionally, the guidance lists examples of content that these
broadcasters should avoid altogether. These include images of presenters’ anal, labial or
genital areas, real or simulated sex acts and sexually explicit language.
Ofcom has made clear to licensees in published decisions what sort of material is unsuitable in
daytime chat or adult chat advertising content broadcast without mandatory restricted access.
Ofcom is putting daytime chat and adult chat broadcasters on notice that as a result our
concerns about these services’ compliance with the BCAP Code, we are commencing a
targeted monitoring exercise of all services broadcasting daytime and adult chat content.
Ofcom will consider any breach relating to the broadcast of sexual content on these services
to be potentially serious and will consider taking appropriate regulatory action, which could
include the imposition of a statutory sanction.

Fuck me , they've done nothing remotely risky for years , someone at the channels need to push back or why not aplly for harder licence that would atleast encrypt the night shows .

They are operating to a softer license standard than most mainstream tv channels , suppose that always suited them as reason why they can' get naughtier but if the last two nights shows are anything to go by Babestation must be losing viewers and callers to s66 massively. They have toned it down so much over the years so that they make their other shows appear naughtier and therefore additional cost that now they don't go tolpless before 2215 , rarely show the bottom half of girl on screen until after midnight and even then she cannot go naked .

Basically they have self sanitised is so much that they are now measured to a much more PG standard

Fools !!

bs seem to be really enforcing these hard on the dayshows...all the girls saying on chat that producers have warned them and said they cant do/wear a lot of things they did before

I approve of it.
If everybody observes the rules then people are less likely to get told off and might start being nice to each other.
If the girls can't show so much they'll have to find other ways of entertaining us. Like a warm welcome at the start and a heartfelt thank you and good night at the end.

I suppose given all the breaches 66 have already had they don't have to worry as much and expand have always been tame

Breaches ?

Weren't the recent complaints against them investigated but nothing came of them ?

Does that not mean there were no breaches and there was no case to answer for S66 ?

Also it's a bit different for BS as they had a sex toy occasionally visible on the tv streams.

Yeah the most recent bulletin said s66 had nothing to be investigated on as far as I know. They have been told a little while ago before that ofcom are considering them for a fine for breaching the daytime rules (or something like that)

I believe the recent "in breach" rulings babefan29 is referring too, are the ones mentioned in the post below .
