Has Anyone Ever Complained To The Bbc About A Programme?

[ClaryS]

I just have. I feel a bit like a prude but the sex scene on Truckers last night came as a bit of a shock, to put it bluntly (and he did) someone getting rammed from behind boobies swaying in the wind - this programme on from 9pm to 10pm -ok the watershed but who makes their teenagers go to bed before 10pm? -and yes I know they can see worse on the net if you are not careful -but this was a drama programme and that amount of graphic detail was not necessary at all. Thankfully son was upstairs getting ready for bed, I would have been so embarrassed -even OH said What The Funicular? I thought this was family viewing. If I want to watch porn I will access those sorts of programmes I do not expect it rammed down my throat (sorry) at nine o'clock Thursday on BBC.

Dead right, prudie.

Incidentally, why is this activity called 'doggie style'? Dogs mating turn so that the male is buttock to buttock with the female, facing the other way. I defy anyone to try this !

With another dog?

[Prudie]

I believe that's supposed to be so Fred but I've only ever seen dogs doing it - doggy style :-)

//Fred.......the modern teenager.........."embarrassed?"............I wonder? //

what seems to embarrass teens more than anything is the thought of old people doing it...... :-&

in answer to Prudie I did an online complaint and should be contacted by email 'within 2 weeks'.

Sqad I'm sure if you Google red tube and doggy you will get access to a plethora of suitable titillation, but then I reckon you already know that :-) x

Clary.........LOL

No that porn stuff does little for me, i enjoy watching "the real thing", not contrived situations.

the watershed's the watershed. If you think the watershed is wrong, tell them. But they're unlikely to respond to boobies swaying in the wind after the watershed as it stands; it's adults time.

Though you might have a point if it was at 9:05 or so. How far into the programme did it happen? (Not that I'm going to check it out on iPlayer or anything.)

actually, I have just had a look at how iPlayer handles it. They give warning of sexual content and you have to click a prompt saying you're over 16 before you can watch it. Interesting that the wicked internet takes a tougher line than the BBC after nine. (Though of course anyone can click a prompt, just as anyone can watch telly.)
