Jeez I really don't see what the problem is. I mean if they're going to put up adverts something like this will happen eventually. Which makes me ask WTF do they have adverts on a mortuary anyways?Comment

It's a billboard on the paving next to the mortuary. There are lot of boards like this in the UK. They're owned by city councils.Originally posted by mapes View Post

Seems like the bigger issue is that the UK is just now getting season 1 of The Walking Dead. That show freakin' rocks!Comment

Had it a while ago now. Sadly in the UK some TV shows follow a double airing pattern. This means they're first shown on Cable/Satelite to subscription paying viewers. An episode will air roughly 1 to 2 weeks after it has been broadcast in the US. Then, the show is passed on to Freeview Terrestrial channels a couple of months after the shows first airing, and this is what the advert is for.Originally posted by JohnyRico View Post
So instead of waiting 12 weeks for the season to be aired, then the month or two break before it's release on DVD and Bluray you have to wait twice as long (at least). Most of the time it doesn't bother me, however this time it really does as i want the Bluray now!!!!
Hope that's easy to understand lol.Comment

Does the airing on public TV get edited for language, gore etc?Comment

Nope. It just gets put in a timeslot that allows it to be aired uncut. Normally 9-10pm+.Originally posted by JohnyRico View PostComment

According to Ofcom, the watershed on standard television in the UK starts at 9:00 p.m.,[7] and finishes at 5:30 a.m. the next morning. Programmes that are 15+ are shown during this period. However, some 12+ shows can be shown before 09:00 p.m., such as The Simpsons, Malcolm in the Middle and Doctor Who. On premium film or pay-per-view services requiring a subscription, the watershed starts at 8:00 p.m. However, 12, 15 and 18 rated films can be shown on PIN protected channels (such as Sky Movies) at any time of the day. Viewers are required to enter their PIN to view. There should be a gentle transition to adult material,[8] and 18-rated material is not allowed to be shown before 10:00 p.m.Comment
