Obviously the U.K. has some of the strictest porn legislation in Europe(with the possible exception of Norway and Ireland) , not only in terms of availability but also what definitely cannot be shown even after the new R18 guidelines but is there much variation amongst say France,Italy,Spain,Germany,Netherlands, east European countries and Scandinavia (apart from Norway)? It seems that in the Netherlands anything goes (bestiality,scat etc) except for material involving minors and very extreme S/M but is this also the case for most other European countries albeit with more restricted availability or is there considerable different between countries?

The Germans and French are into serious S/M and pissing/scat films (not my cup of tea as Lizard would say )

Do a search here: this has been discussed in gory detail many times previously.

One overlooked factor is where the material is sourced from. In NZ last year I found loads of hc for hire in vidshops but the content seemed to reflect the country of origin's rules rather than NZ's (which are extremely liberal compared to the UK).
Btw, that's not the main reason I'm taking up residence out there...lol

Heres a strange fact. Fisting cannot be filmed in Sweden but can in Denmark. Norway dont even allow h/c at all.

I was once watching Rendezvous/Torrid TV who transmitted from Sweden. They did a live phone in show similar to Playboys Night Calls but with a hardcore live show at the end. The girl hosting it for her finale fisted her arse and fanny simultaneously which was pretty spectacular-both hands dissapeared. She pointed out that the studio was in Denmark because if she had done that in Sweden they would be arrested. Rendezvous used to cut all the extreme stuff from the German and French films in order not to upset the Swedish authorities. I suspect they also hoped it might make the UK think twice about proscribing the channel but they were wrong because our government DID ban it and they ceased trading shortly afterwards.

I notice that Spice Platinum dont cut pissing or fisting. They are owned by Playboy but based in Germany or Holland.

Our government gave up the policy of proscribing h/c channels as it was pointless. As soon as one channel closed another two would open. ......a bit like pop-ups.

The thing about ireland is that rules are all on paper.While porn legislation is strict it is not unheard of for there to be swearing on the irish news before 9 o clock.Court reporters occasionally will read out bad language which was said during a court case.
A group of angry taxi drivers were once shown threating to abuse a male reporter with his large fluffy microphone after they took offence to his opinion on their strike action.Twas funny shit.
And despite whatever laws there are the occasional arthouse films on late at night which show some risque stuff.
Ireland doesnt seem to have an ITC-the complaints anwser machine at the tv stations office probably tells moaners to fuck off.
