TV show on Sky HD Max breached the pre-watershed passcode pin requirement.
Not entirely sure where this needs to go.
I was a little horrified today when, while channel surfing, I came across a program on Sky HD Max called NCIS Los Angeles. It did not show the pin message. There were quite violent scenes but the most disturbing was where a woman was shot by someone in the neck in a pretty graphic scene. Clearly this was meant, at the very least, for 15+ audience. Interestingly, the next program straight after required a pin...
Having these programs on is fine, if they're being shown in accordance with the law, but this was a clear breach. It was 1pm in the afternoon! Was the program not correctly age rated and hence no PIN? It's been reported to OFCOM.
