As was helpfully pointed out by the Daily Mail it was broadcast pre-watershed (8:10 I think) and featured a naked dominatrix flicking a whip across Holmes' face!!

Put that on an adult channel at midnight and watch the fines rain down!!

Typically for the Daily Mail, they have their facts wrong. By the time the whipping scene comes along she's wearing an overcoat. She is supposedly naked before this, but nothing is actually seen.

24 mins in for those that can't be arsed looking for the scene in question:

Cheer's for the link Stan, from what I seen you could see more on the babe channels, in saying that you wouldn't expect to see this type of scene anyway on a drama such as this Blush but the BBC as we all know are untouchable, they are protected by the Government so they cannot be fined, warned or face being revoked. All I can say is if I was in a family household watching this type of scene I'd be highly embarrassed and would probably pick up the newspaper and hope the scene pass's through very quickly, I also noticed that no prior warning was given to the viewer's over the scene in question. On the subject of the babe channels, anybody who choose's to watch them should know what to expect and that is something Ofcom are really missing the point over Cool
This is by no means intended to stir up excitement or even to suggest things are on the up, but on a positive note for a change, here's a couple of things I've observed over the last few weeks:

Proper, over-the-knicker pussy rubbing from some girls, seemingly tolerated by cameraman/producers. Nothing like the close-up gussets shots of prolonged stimulation like we used to get, but I've spotted it a few times just recently.

More interaction during the 2-4-1s, including tit fondling and arse slapping (a very firm no-no not that long ago)

Provocative clothing creeping back into the dayshows.

No giant leaps, for sure, and no where near what, as adults, we should expect from these shows. These are merely an observation.
Yes well I see where you are coming from Stan in many way's, however the babe channels are allways going to be like a bloody yoyo, as soon as you think they are having an upturn in fortune, up steps Ofcom and hammers them right left and centre with a massive fine and a severe warning, just take one look at Elite these days, it's like a worn rag, it's had that much bullshit from Ofcom in recent year's it has simply stopped trying anymore, I remember in particular the fantastic 2 for 1's we used to get from Caty Cole and Charlie O'neil which consisted of much (naked) arse slapping and other antics, now Elite is just painful viewing these days, unusual to see you so optimistic Stan but until Ofcom are permantly removed from the equation we're never going to see a truly great consistant period coming from any of the babe channels.

Well I certainly wouldn't go that far, SB. The things I mention are by no means a nightly occurrence. They're little more than the flickerings of a dying candle.
This comedian sums up being offended to a tee, if only Ofcom would see it the same way Cool

Christian Broadcasting Council Wrote:• Are there any regions, areas or audiences (such as the devolved nations) which may require separate consideration, and why?
CBC believes that Parliament has a role to protect the citizen consumer from indecency (e.g. child pornography) or libel or illegal surveillance but not much else. CBC believes that children and especially children under 7 years old need to be safeguarded in all regulation regarding media plurality as children below this age are unable to tell the difference between editorial and advertisements. Therefore the connection between media companies and the makers of children’s’ toys needs to be taken into account when scrutiny is undertaken of media plurality.

Taken from the Christian Broadcasting Council response to the Ofcom consultation on plurality. The question was not about sexual content, but interesting all the same. http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binarie...es/cbc.pdf
Iran's Press TV loses UK licence

Iranian news network Press TV has had its licence revoked by the media regulator Ofcom and will no longer be allowed to broadcast in the UK.

Ofcom said the state broadcaster's English language outlet had breached several broadcasting licence rules over editorial control of the channel.

Press TV has also failed to pay a £100,000 fine imposed last year.

The channel called the decision "a clear example of censorship". It will be removed from Sky on 20 January.

The £100,000 fine was imposed last year after the network broadcast an interview with imprisoned Newsweek and Channel 4 journalist Maziar Bahari, which the Ofcom said had been conducted under duress.

Ofcom said Press TV had "indicated it is unwilling and unable to pay".

It was during the investigation into the Bahari interview that the media regulator formed the impression that editorial decisions on the channel were being controlled by the offices in Tehran, instead of the UK.

Press TV was given the opportunity to respond and make the relevant amendments needed to comply with the broadcasting code, but "failed to make the necessary application", Ofcom said.

Not to mention Baldrick, generally reckoned to be a tit.

Had the misfortune to see Along Came Polly, a Jennifer Aniston-Ben Stiller piece of romcom/fart crap on Five yesterfay lunchtime (12:50-14:30). One scene, while I was eating lunch, has Ben Stiller having a noisy dihorrea attack. Offensive. Then he blocks the loo, floods the bathroom, Jennifer Aniston rushes in and he holds up the excerement stained cloth he used because there was no toilet paper left. Offensive again. And at some stage Im pretty sure they were on a bed getting down to it when the phone goes. The Broadcast Code imposes an absolute ban on representations of intercourse before the watershed (rule 1.20).

"Mummy what are they doing?"
"Well petal, Jen has an itch and Ben is jiggling back and forward to relieve it."
"I see Mummy. The au pair must be very itchy."
