In addition, after viewing the content complained of Ofcom noted thatThis is simply untrue. The Bangbabes website does not contain any R18 material outside of the membership area. Membership to these websites requires the user to submit their credit card details, thus verifying their age.
during all three broadcasts the website 'www.bangbabes.tv' was promoted. When accessed by Ofcom this website featured images of a strong sexual nature equivalent to BBFC R18-rated material ("R18-rated equivalent material") which could be readily viewed without appropriate protections. Although this R18-rated equivalent material was not broadcast on-air, Ofcom was concerned that it appeared on a website being promoted on Ofcom licensed services freely available without mandatory restricted access from 21:00.
Furthermore, the BBFC already have online content covered in a voluntary scheme (BBFC Online) that likely excludes Ofcom applying any UNPUBLISHED guidelines they might be applying, in reaching their bogus classification anouncements.
Explicit softcore where the sex is not real or not shown in graphic detail fall under 18 'sex works'. Cut R18 also falls into this category.
Only strong, explicit, genuine sex rates as R18 - and there is none of that available for free without adult verification by means of a credit card subscription on any of the babe channel websites.
