We all know B/S has a dutch licence,which gives them a bit more freedom as to the shows they can put on,as in they are not regulated by ofcom,but they dont really choose to do this because of extreme,because if they show to much on the main channels,people will not purchase extreme,my question is how hard is it to obtain a dutch licence,why have for example Elite and redlight not gone down the same road,is it only a freeview thing,just like to know.

The only reason Babestation has a Dutch licence is because it is owned by their parent company which is Dutch.

Holland will not give licences to non Dutch companies.

Can anyone tell me why there are some babechannels that need a freeview card two watch them on sky?

It's not a Freeview card - Freeview is a terrestrial system rather than satellite.

You need a Sky viewing card to watch certain daytime babe shows on satellite because they're on channels that show subscription material after 9 or 10 pm, and are therefore encrypted. The day transmissions are known as free to view because a Sky card is needed, even though there's no additional charge.

Thanks dave. Now that theres someone who knows what he's talking about, can u tell me why the babeshows forbid the girls from swearing on the mic (at late hours naturally)?
Reason I ask is there is free flowing swearing on the 10min freeview of television x thats on my freeview box at 12pm. Also I was informed by someone that its legal for the babechannels to swear now!! So why don't they allow it anymore????

There are people here with a deeper knowledge of Ofcom's current rules than me, but as far as I know presenters on babe channels can't use 'sexual language' (Ofcom's term) at any time.

You're quite right that on the TVX freeview slots swearing can be heard. I think this is because TVX is not technically a babe channel, it's a subscription adult entertainment channel and thus comes under a different set of guidelines, even though their freeview slots are free to air.

The babe channels are classed as shopping channels - this was a ruse thought up by Ofcom about three years ago to subject them to ridiculously strict control.

I here you dave, and I know about the shopping channel nonsense. However, ive heard it from one of the channels themselves that it is allowed after I think he said 10pm!

I've just checked, and here's an excerpt from the Ofcom guidelines drawn up after the reclassification to teleshopping:

Adult chat broadcasters should:

at no time broadcast sexually explicit language; and
ensure any sexual language broadcast is restrained, and avoid its use altogether before midnight.

The rules are typically vague and even though it appears that presenters can use 'restrained sexual language' after midnight I think to play safe the babe channels just refrain from any swearing at all.
