Bloody hell! Aussie ads censored...

Typical.
I remember the fuss caused when a brief nipple shot was shown in an ad for shampoo. A few complaints later and it was, (possibly rightly), moved to a late night only slot, and then dumped altogether. I liked that AD!!!

The UK is a horribly strict TV censoring hole. While some welcome changes have come in recent years, (we now get legal porn in licenced sex shops classified R18), we are still miles behind when it comes to what is shown on TV.
Even late night "adult" pin-number-protected subscription-only channels don't show much - external cunnilingus, no penetration, and NEVER an erect penis! Plant pot softcore at it's worst!
Yet these channels are called "XXXthis" and "explictthat". People pay expecting so much more and are left disappointed every time. There's a useful website for Brits wanting to keep an eye on Satellite adult channels: http://www.melonfarmers.co.uk/sssat06.htm
Drives me insane.
