Celeste is referring to this news story:
"Playboy has been fined £22,500 for a series of Ofcom programme code breaches on its now-axed Playboy One service. Ofcom said that Playboy One was in breach of rules pertaining to the transmission of "adult sex" content on seven occasions in September, November and December 2007.
The media regulator investigated complaints about Jenna's American Sex Star, Adult Stars Close Up, Blue Collar Babes, Sexy Girls Next Door, Sexy Urban Legends, Sex House and Sex Guides, which all aired between 11pm and 3:30am during the period. It said that all the programmes "included sequences depicting masturbation, oral sex... clear labial detail, sexual intercourse and full nudity", and featured "strong language" including the f- and c-words "in an overtly sexual context".
"The explicitness, strength and/or sustained nature of the sexual content and language was unacceptable for broadcast on a free-to-air channel," Ofcom ruled. "The primary purpose of this material was sexual stimulation. None had a sufficient and clear editorial context to justify its broadcast."
Playboy said that the presence of Playboy One in the adult section of the Sky EPG along with features such as PIN protection and channel removal options in the Sky Guide "gave some protection to viewers from coming across its content unawares", but admitted that Jenna's American Sex Star was unsuitable for broadcast "in its current form".
Ofcom decided to issue a fine because "the breaches when taken together demonstrated a serious and repeated failure by the Licensee to comply with the Code".
Playboy One ceased broadcasting in September 2008."

at the end of the day, you will find that most of the complaints will have come from people related to the other channels.
the chances of someone finding one of the channels by mistake are fairly slim, then the chances of them watching long enough to be offended is even slimmer. most people would just change the channel, instead of taking time out their lives to write or call in to complain.

Don't you just know that F-ofcom are a load of old codgers who sit round a table with a nice sponge cake on and a pot of tea deciding what I as an adult can watch.
Same old story the kids might see it.
Bullshit the kids are already doing it and getting more than I do the randy little sods!
Just get yourself a Humax 5400z box or something point a dish at Hotbird and get a £20 card off ebay and watch hard core uncut porn 24 hours aday - allthough oneday they will find a way of stopping the satellite signal landing on the UK perhaps a massive umbrella over the east side of the country.
If the parents of the kids are allowing their offspring to watch what they like in their own bedrooms then they should be lockedup for neglect.
Same reasoning behind speed bumps if you can not catch the offenders penalise everybody.
Poxy country!

Exactly what I was thinking. They're doing it to themselves, and once a channel has been fined I'm sure they double their efforts to screw over someone else.

Can't all the channel's play nice??
As at the end of the day we the viewers tend to suffer.
Therefore we generally feel cheated.
