Interview with the regulators

[Paul Tavener]

I interviewed Ofcom's Tim Suter and Matt Peacock at Riverside house back on the 7th April. The full transcript and a summary are now published here: http://www.ofwatch.org.uk

They were rather evasive but you might find some interesting snippets about R18/Adult services/IPTV and the future of broadcasting regulation in the UK.

Thanks Paul, interesting info. So, pass the parcel is still being played at Ofcom. Strange that they should say Xtasi hadn't been proscribed. That's how it came out in the news, on very thin evidence I recall. Of course SCT seemed to think that was the case which is why Extasi is now named Ultra.

I will try to check the exact situation out with the DCMS when I get some time.
