its all gonna end up online 24/7 and the 900 channels will die a death.

Has everyone seen how you now need to enter your pin on the 900 channels. Im all for that if it means a return to the old days of being a bit more daring but having a look through them last night it was just the same as normal and its even more annoying now when you have to type your pin every time you switch .Even chatback is pin protected and it is a continous loop which plays during the day .
Lets hope things get better or I think it may be the end for the channels soon especially when there is better just a click away although you cant link that here either now

ofcom suck cock! they've even got at channel 4. The Friends and Desperate Housewives episodes have been censored. 1 friends episode phoebe says the word pervert and they edit it out now. The other day on DH Gabrielle says orgasms but that edited out. Yet they dont crack down on Loose Women who constantly making sexual reference at lunchtime! Wot bout the kiddies then???

I dont care which channels it is - if they are pin protected they should be able to get a bit racier.
Did you know that some of the simpsons episodes have been censored and channel 4 as well - Its getting absolutely ridiculous now - I read a while back as well that some Tom and Jerry cartoons have been censored as well because they feature Tom smoking cigars and ciggies- for gods sake. I mean the cat and mouse can beat the living shit out of each other but god help the kids if they see a cat having a fag. I grew up with these cartoons and also road runner ones - doesnt mean Im going to hit someone over the head with a sledgehammer does it and they dont make me want to start smoking either- Does turn me to drink though

Gay channels are automatically covered by any Ofcom regulation changes affecting the babe channels. Gay channels are not dealt with as a separate item.

Wots the point in giving these programmes certificate 12 and then censoring them? Next thing u know ofcom will censor Crimewatch because murder is a sensitive subject
re: pin issue, if ur watching it on sky planner then you will be prompted for a pin. watchin it live never has a pin
:O i just saw Boots advert and it was advertising sum vagina pH balance stuff. They said vagina at least 3 times, lets all tell ofcom lol
RE: Ofcom proposing to get much tougher ? - perana68 - 02-07-2009 13:35
As a public body OFCOM have to take account of responses to consultations, so the more level headed responses the more weight the arguments in favour of babe channels will carry. The babe channels should welcome this and club together for the best legal counsel to represent them as current fines and rules are against European law and jeopordise free trade, get some balls and take the fuckers on.
Penalties are also disproportionate to risk which is against government principles following recent reviews that attempt to reduce the burden of regulation.
Maybe we should ask Jaquie Smith's husband to be a spokesman for the channels as he likes a good perv like the rest of us

Nothing's changed for me. I don't have to enter my pin to access any of the 900 channels.
