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?"

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
