They are programs which you need to use the PIN to access.

Does it mean there is a charge if you enter the PIN?

No charge, it's just to "prove" you are an adult

HI @JayJayM 

Just to add, there are padlocks in the adult section of the EPG. The EPG clearly states that it's an Adult channel.  In this instance you will be charged for accessing those Adult channels.

It might be my imagination, coupled with my lack of late-night viewing, but I think the padlocks disappear for anything beginning after the watershed.
