Why was BYE BI BUENOS ARIES by Marco Antonio cut? The BBFC said...
Under the 1967 Sexual Offences Act it is illegal for "homosexual buggery"to take place when more than two men are present. The BBFC is thereforecurrently required to cut any sequences where unsimulated anal penetrationis clearly taking place and more than two men are present in frame. Groupsex is permitted in gay 'R18's if no anal penetration is visible and analpenetration is itself permitted provided that only two men are in frame.However, if more than two men are present on screen whilst anal penetrationoccurs this is - under UK law - a criminal offence and the BBFC is requiredto cut. Similar cuts are being required to a number of gay 'R18' titles ofwhich this is only one example.
