Hi,
Can anyone please tell me whether, now that the UK porn laws have been slackened slightly, the UK Satellite 'porn' channels (TVX, RedHot, etc..) content has stregnthened or if its still heavily cut?
Im considering subscribing to one but remember them being very soft core one or two years ago.
Thank you.
Nic.

The general opinion seems to be that they are slightly harder but not very hard. A bit more hard than an 18 cert video.

A bit more hard than an 18 cert..! Uhm! - Not sure what that means.... What are they allowed to show?

Theres no set rules and the envelope gets pushed bit by bit over the years. Sat TV in UK is regulated by the ITC unlike vids which are regulated by BBFC. Both organisations work from different guidelines and standards of what is acceptable change with time.
I have some 18 cert Electric Blue and Linzi Drew stuff and they show no pink shots or open legged poses but I understand that UK soft sat channels now show (ahem to coin a phrase) "split beaver/hamburger shots" which you wont get on an 18 from HMV.

The guy who writes the "Certificate X" page in "What Satellite and Digital TV" magazine reports, in the November issue, that he'd heard rumours that TVX and TAC are soon to start showing hardcore. I'll believe it when I see it.
If you can affort the satellite kit required, Spice Platinum shows uncut versions of TAC series, such as "Class Action" and "A-Levels". A subscription is currently been advertised for ?99 from several dealers.
