I thinks it a shame tvxmole, i think that encrypted subscription channels should be able to show hardcore at the same strength as the net in my view. Hardcore is what people what & what they expect if they are paying for it.
However if you're going to show 'hardcore' in a freeview un-encrypted then that is a different story - esp if it is a ply to get people to sign up thinking that that there is hardcore after encryption. You will lose customers & rep for doing that. I for one like TVX but i think it should be much more hardcore. You can watch live streaming hardcore sex on adultivelivetv on the net- you can't really compete with that.

You sky only viewers might not be aware that all freeview receivers have the facility built in to use a pin number to stop children from accessing certain channels.

Indeed.
For those that read the adjudication you will see that the first penalty was issued for showing the url to TVX hardcore websites, unencrypted on sky, during the daytime.
Lazy? Perhaps.
Stupid? Maybe.
Too hardcore? Rubbish.

They didn't have a Technical Mananger at the time. Which was shortly after loosing a previous adjudication. Anyone know why ?

TVX is now the bargain basement. Instead of new and exciting shows you repeat everything to death, cut your shows to shreads and re-hash old stuff into new. And what is the obsession with A) fat, ugly and ancient women? A fit 50 year old is fine but the hounds your channel shows never have been fit and look totally repulsive. What audience are you aiming at, blind people? B) Base you shows around young women, not 60 year old has beens who need viagra to manage a semi ie. Jim Slip, Ben Doon etc.
Too hardcore? A blatant lie.

Hey Stacey. First of all I couldn't agree with you more. Hardcore is what people want to see (well I sure as hell do). That's why I found the story quite funny initially, I mean If you are paying for porn who would complain about "sexually explicit material" Isn't that rather the point?!
In terms of competing with hardcore online however, http://www.televisionx.co.uk does of course show a huge number of hardcore videos. In response to some comments about older women appearing, yes there are a lot of MILF videos online, but you all have to remember the what gets a person off is a very personal thing, and there a lot of people out there to do want to see older women in porn as that is there personal preference. Television X wants to offer something for everyone. If you are into your hot younger girls (and hey, i second that) you need only take a look at the girls who are on the Television X Tour right now to know that Television X still has THE hottest Brit girls around as their ambassadors. The likes of Robyn Truelove, Keisha Kane and Syren Sexton?

I think you know the answer to that. It tells you who the complaint came from in the adjudication. A rival channel.
It was A rival channel who complained to OFCOM about the R18 showings of "Babe Abroad" on Playboy.
It was A rival channel who complained to OFCOM about the R18 strength shows on the defunct "XXXstaci" (sp?) channel.

TVX Online hardcore, blah, blah, blah.
I'm a TVX/Red Hot subscriber, have been since 2004. I don't watch hardcore on a computer screen.
I subscribe to VideoBox and ztod/3rdMovies/BlackIcePass because I can download their drm free movies, burn them onto DVD and watch them on a TV screen. You can't do that with the TVX web content.
Your online business is not the issue being debated.
You were not fined for what you show online.
You received a fine for showing the url's, the website addresses, to hardcore sites, unencrypted, during the daytime.
You received a fine for showing R18 strength material on one single occasion, and from how I read it in the adjudication, it sounds as though someone stuck in the wrong tape rather than "TVX is flying the banner of naughty".
And you say "Television X wants to offer something for everyone."
Who exactly wants to see constant repeats of 14 year old episodes of "Shagnasty and Mutley"? I'm intrigued.
I think it is time to cancel my subscription to TVX.
Please tell me how to do that as I know it is not a simple as just making a phone call or sending an email.
