RE: Free DVD in Saturdays `The Mirror`
Nice idea but, if you look on www.melonfarmers.co.uk you`ll see that the BBFC have agreed that the Mirror may be encouraging newsagents to break the law here.
See this, which includes a quote from the BBFC:
http://www.melonfarmers.co.uk/news04a.htm#Video%20Recording%20Cabaret%20Act
Cabaret has a 15 certificate, which make it an offence to supply it to anyone under 15.
Given that many (most ?) newspapers are delivered by kids under 15, any newsagent which gives a copy of the paper containing the DVD to such a child is breaking the law.
Can anyone shed any light on how the DVD was distributed ? Did anyone have it delivered by their paper boy/girl ?
Given that I believe the Video Recordings Act is due for a big overhaul, I think that it would help if The Mirror were investigated over this.
Views ?
