Surely that's why the watershed exists, WLD: it's up to the broadcasters to adhere to it responsibly and up to parents to ensure that very young people aren't watching/listening at inappropriate times, or left to their own devices on the internet where they might also gain accessd to age-inappropriate content.

I'd rather be treated like an adult and given a range of choice regarding what I watch and listen to; "bad taste" is so subjective that it's better for individuals to be able to make choices for themselves - such as switching off what they don't like. As I said up the thread, I hate Jeremy Clarkson and Chris Moyles, but I'd defend anyone's right to listen to/watch them.
