The Gay Program - Clapham Junction
 

I dont know what it was called

but do channel4 want a death wish

they showed and erection on tv which is eiligal

if they get away with it do you think erection will be more commanly seen

Are you sure it is illegal after 9pm?

LMAO .. It was on after big brother and i kept that channel on and I wasnt payin attention n watchin on compuiter, n my mum walked place and almost shat herself it was likeewwwwww

yer it is against the law at any time of the day

Can I just ask how you know?

the program was called Clapham Junction

ive got a felling that they will get away with it because the program marked 40years seen homosexualty wasnt illegal

saw a program about naught thing on tv and one of them was the only erection ever seen on tv and it was just like one frame

Quotes from the official Ofcom Broadcasting Code:

"Representations of sexual intercourse must not occur before the watershed, or when children are particularly likely to be listening, unless there is a serious educational purpose. Any discussion on, or portrayal of, sexual behaviour must be editorially justified if included before the watershed, or when children are particularly likely to be listening, and must be appropriately limited and inexplicit."

"Nudity before the watershed must be justified by the context."

The watershed is between 9.00pm and 5.30am, so as Clapham Junction was on between 10 and 11pm, I don't think it has broken any rules.

television x is the only exaple i can find on wikipedia.com

Censorship
Television X advertises itself as showing all that it can show, but due to UK television censorship, the amount that can be shown is less than that of hardcore pornography. Whilst full nudity can be shown, as can sexual intercourse, the limit to what the viewer can actually see means that Television X cannot show:-

Direct eyeline of penetration. This includes any part of the body being penetrated and by anything.
Erections
Direct tongue to genital contact. In the case of fellatio the view is normally blocked by an arm, a leg, or the act is filmed from behind. In the case of cunnilingus, a 'top down' view can be used, but a direct view of the tongue touching the vagina is never shown.
Direct touching of the naked penis
As a result of these restrictions, programming tends to be reliant on drawn out situations, restrictive camera angles and the actors / actress constantly describing the current activity to compensate for the viewer not actually being allowed to see it.

LOL has it been that long since i have watched anything else other than big brother that they are showing porn on channel 4 :shocked:

I'm sure it isn't illegal to show an erection on telly after the watershed!

My thoughts entirely... :wink:

I all ways thought that if it was educational it could be shown. There was a program a while back about sex. They had a camera strapped to the blokes cock and a camera inside the woman so you saw penetration with an erect penis from both view points. This included him cumming. I think it was C4 and on around 10pm. This was classed as an educational program though.

Are you sure you were watching channel 4 :shocked:

Well seeing as most of the porn channels, or so i'm told, can't show any erections or insertion of la penus, i doubt a mainstream channel such as channel 4 would get let off.

Although, they show placid penus's all the time on tv, so what does it matter if the chaps excitable.

LMFAO

lovely

It was actually quite, er, educational. Nothing erotic in the slightest.

I think in the porn sense it is not legal to show certain things on the telly and an erection may well be one of them, however for a documentary I am sure it should be ok!

If they said before the show that the programme might contain sex or what ever, then they can't do anything, because C4 warned the audience. Most of this stuff was shown on Skins, although we didn't see it, it was obvious they were doing it. It's after watershed so it shouldn't be a problem.

I watched it, I didn't see an erect penis? (I didn't watch the full thing but only missed literally a few minutes). Also, the marked it with a warning more than once and after every break, so I don't see where the problem is.

the erected penis was right at the end

it did mark it after every break but that just like me saying im going to rob that bank to a police man and wondering why i have been arested at the end of day

With the older man and the young boy when they were in his flat?
It didn't show the whole penis so I think it went passed the rules, also, they're allowed to do it if it's within the context of the programme - and it was.

no it was at the end after the flat sence

the boy lit a fag and started masabating and then the older man saw him and when he was shutting his curtain the younger boy got up a exposed himself
