Whats happened to Babestar TV???

[jonty8]

Sky channel 916. It was the only show where the girls went fully nude.

All the FTA stations have gone tame in the last week. I blame Jem Stone, her show on channel 913 a fortnight ago was more explicit than some of the encrypted channels...........she was damn hot!

apparently babestar is only off air a few more days ! nothing to do with ofcom they are just changing channels ! not sure what the new channel number is though but when i hear i will let u know !

I'd heard that Babes Live had taken over them but maybe that was wrong

[Arginald Valleywater]

Just read they have been fined ?175000 for breach of the Ofcom code. Apparently they were repeatedly warned and ignored them to their cost.
Doubt they will be back after that hit in the wallet.

The Babestar website has changed the channel from 916 to 913 so maybe it will be back.

They also had their broadcast license revoked – ‘Ofcon’ censorship strikes again!

I'm sure we will all sleep soundly, in the knowledge that ‘Ofcon’ are doing such a good job nannying, er, I mean, protecting the public!

I don't suppose they will take ‘Ofcon’ to court, which is long overdue, IMO?

175000 for showing a bit of pube ? just coz its live I don't see why its so different to playboy showing prerecorded FFN ??

[MARCCE]

It doesn't actually seem to be anything to do with the fact that the girls were taking their knickers off.

The problem seems to be to do with the way the station advertises and that's something that's been ongoing for a while.

Can't see any mention of the full frontal nudity in the Ofcom report.

If that's the case, it seems a bit stupid to have kept running the voiceover that was causing the problems when they seemed to have been getting away with the pubes.
