RIP Bang Babes : Gone Bust...

This whole conversation about the whys and wherefores of the television company that were once BangBabe intrigues me. How is it that so many people know what went on in the day to day running of this company, when the only interest that they really had was waiting till 5.25 in the morning when the nightshift was ending, and then shooting their load into a tissue before fucking of to their beds.

I've read a few of the ofcom bulletins\notices and I don't recall having ever seen any mention of the instances of Bang Babes babes fingering themselves visibly on screen (I and others have the recordings even if Bang don't!).

It seems to me that if it was Ofcom's intension to take down the channel then Bang gave them more than enough ammunition to take a shot with the night shows so why does it seem they only targeted the day shows?

I won't miss much sleep thinking about it but it just occurred to me as a bit odd that is all.

Anyone have a take on why the day and not night shows seemed to have been the target of ofcom?

Breaches during the daytime are considered as more serious because of the danger of the output being viewed by children.

(yes, we all know the realities of a statement like that but don't shoot the messenger!)

Maybe Ofcom think that Bangbabes is now shown in school as most kids are in school during the day. Lol.

While they treat the rest of us grown-ups like kids. I bet they had a right good old perv before putting BangBabes to the sword.

I keep giving people the benefit of the doubt when I really should be remembering that these people are the spiritual heirs of the Soho barons. For every semi-respectable character like Paul Raymond there were numerous (dozens if you go down a seniority level or two) who would have cried tears of pride at hearing what Bang's chiefs are allegedly up to.

This fucking blows.......most of the best girls imo were bang babes girls.

I hate when channels go south and we miss out on regular favourites for a while because of it.

Oh wait was it violation cos daytime girls were showing ass and stuff?

they werent that bad on rule breaking. they broke the rules 60 times in 18 months abd they didnt co-operate with ofcom so no wonder they went

saw this tweet from lynsey just now which she posted yesterday and doesnt hold back her opinions on bang's management

" Lynseyatkinson Lynsey Atkinson
Thinks the way bang hav dealt with this is actually disgraceful. Can't believe sum girls hav found out thru fans! Partyin in the studio? Wtf
19 hours ago"

It seems there's alot we don't know about what's gone on, can anyone that was watching on Thursday night shed any light on what might have been going on?

It sounding like the main investor/owner has got sick of what's been going on and pretty much pulled the plug before anymore fines etc are imposed because of the poss poor management.

The show was broadcast as normal on Thursday night. There did not appear to be anything unusual going on.

The Pad was also on during the daytime on Friday.
