I know it's the Daily Mail, and as such should be ignored, but really?!


OBSCENE!!


Now unlike most Daily Mail readers I actually bothered to watch this show and I was fairly impressed. It wasn't a dry, turgid medical show and that's a good thing. It was entertaining without being titilating. At no point did it descend into pornography. Yes, the women presenting it is attractive - good. Who wants to imagine ugly people bumping "uglies"?! Her "tantric" sex was conducted fully clothed. If that turns you on - god knows what olympic wrestling does for you. If you want children to be interested you have to make it fun. Not naughty and embaressing.


And yes it was on at 8pm before the watershed but again with good reason - any later and some of the kids this should be targeting will be going to bed. In a country with the highest rate of teeneage pregnancies in Europe we're still getting our knickers in a twist over a limp cock on tv? Pur-lease. The fact that they couldn't even show sex in it's biological sense without resorting to cartoons shows how far behind as a country with some ridiculous puritan hangovers.


Pictures of women's breasts on a4 paper were as close as we got to explicit.


Please, people, whoever you are that "flooded" the OfCom switchboard to complain....grow up.

My 14 year old daughter watched this - I caught the last 10 minutes or so and watched it with her when I got home that night.


From what I saw, I thought it was brilliant. Teenagers are bombarded with unrealistic role models; to see what 'normal' penises and breasts looked like was very reassuring.


Also, she was shocked by the statistics of unprotected sex. I didn't see that bit, but it seems to reinforce the importance of using condoms that I have tried to instil in her. [Obviously she will remain a maiden until her wedding night, (can't have too many chastity belts) but just in case!]

I can't believe I'm going to do this... but I have to stick up for the DM and say that the they have simply reported the fact that people complained to Ofcom. I can't see the Daily mail expressing any of their views in this particular article. Have the Independant or Guardian written similiar artciles today?


I watched the programme and thought it was brilliant. And I might have, at the grand age of 35 and not having lead a sheltered life actually learnt something too. I just can't imagine having seen a programme like this 20 years ago on any channel at any time let alone before the watershed.


Well done Channel 4!!!! I'm V+ ing the series now for sure.


For those that missed it you can watch it on the C4 website..

I've just watched it to see what I missed the first time round. My only concern (regarding waxed pudenda) was picked up on the show by a psychologist which I thought gave it balance.


I still think it's very good, have no qualms about my daughter having seen it and in fact think it would be instructive for everyone who has/wants an active sex life to watch it.

really benjaminty? Every single line drips with smug "don't blame us we are just reporting" and no mention is made of the calls recived by the same bodies to congratulate C4. Or indeed what any positives might have come out from such a programme


Also, mentioning Mediawatch and what they have to say, without reporting their agaenda (MAry Whitehouse's ex mob) is a bit sly on their part as well


Finally, to give credence to James on another thread, they report future shows as about "pregnancy, homosexuality and abortion" - which makes them sound like "problems"

I watched it online the other night. A real hoot. That Anna Richardson is one game lass. I too thought it informative and amusing in its own frothy, flirty, tabloid way. Some intriguing facts and opinions mixed in with some over-excited giblets of mis-information, I mean are they absolutley sure about those figures for the numbers of people who trim down there? What did they say 95% of women have a Brazilian and the other 5% a Hollywood. Who they kidding? And the number of guys they claimed wax. Surely not.

Top moment had to be dearest Anna's exclamation when it dawned on her, as she had her virgin Hollywood, that the waxing mistress was about to get extra personal. "...what, inside?"

    • It happened again tonight. This time a group of kids ( I hate saying that, because it makes them sound less intimidating than they are), threatened to throw a water bomb at me. When I dared them, they started lobbing them. Then they started saying they were going to kill my dog and one of them jumped over the fence of the Japanese Garden and took a running kick at my dog, who got out of the way. He jumped back over the fence, then came back, came within a meter of me and threw a water bomb really hard at me.  I can't be sure it was exactly the same crowd as last time, though I suspect the male ring leader could be.  The police came and were amazing - as was the park warden - and are fairly confident of the identity of one of them and think they may have tried to arrest him before.  There were maybe as many as 15 of them, aged 16-18, all Caucasian, girls and boys (girls being just as aggressive as the boys). The ring leader is a slight man, dark hair / eyes, possibly with facial hair about 5'6", petite, wearing an all-blue tracksuit.  So please be careful when you're in the park around 6.30 / 7pm. The local SNT have been informed.
