The AITA (Adult Industry Trade Association) and some others (notably Ben Dover) are appealing at the BBFC to get a cut down version of an R18 title passed at 18.

I wish to know what exactly is the point of doing this? So you get an R18 which is possibly cut and then you cut it a bit more. Are you still going to have an R18 version?


AITA members include Sandie Caine, Jim Deans and Wankstar films.

What was an R18 submission was submitted for 18 without any cuts (there may have been more than 1 submitted) obviously it was declined and that is now on appeal.

Result if successful you will get the current R18 level available in the shops/newsagents/non licensed sex shops etc etc.

There is also the fact that if R18 were passed at 18, then adult TV channels would be able to show these films under the existing broadcasting regulations, as only R18 films are currently prohibited.
