What, you thought I was talking about the boobs? It's very NSFW as it might be embarrassing when one of your co-workers finds you watching a video with Richard Littlejohn in.


(Seriously though I think it's fair to label it NSFW just in case).

I think it was London only. I remember watching that happen at the time and I'm pretty sure there was mention of it later on on the programme.


They would have mentioned it to the gallery, but I imagine that they wouldn't have insisted that they interrupt the discussion unless it was to be a lengthy outage - an OB fail rather than a routing error which it looks like


Yeah hardcore lesbian porn was very common on terrestrial TV in the mid 90s......

That isn't hardcore, not even by the rules of the ITC, there were some people hugging wrapped around some sheets and some jigging boobs, which to be fair you would have seen during the 80s on Benny hill.

Yes I remember that episode of Benny Hill where one woman was pleasuring another with her mouth while another looks on from a bathtub....


You wouldn't have seen anything even remotely like that outside of a brief clip on some ironic late night channel 4 show, and even then it would be very carefully selected. I don't think Benny Hill ever had any nudity on it

Unless that was what you lot up there got instead when they said 'except for viewers in Scotland'

It's still not "hardcore" by any length of the imagination though!

Maybe not although I'm not sure of the definition.


Don't underestimate the limits of my imagination though

Lol, you said "length"

You are amazing. Thank you so much. I can't count the amount of times I've told people about this and they've never believed me.

I still wonder how it happened. Obviously someone in LNN transmission was watching it, I do wonder how they managed to cut it to air though. Pressing a button while knocking one out?

I think it was more likely to be someone in the London Studios lines/MCR area rather than LNN. Its a messy non-sync cut and it wasn't just a case of cutting back to the studio. Plus Peter Lewis's obviously shocked tones would suggest that it wasn't something that they were even vaguely expecting, I imagine it just suddenly appeared on their OS line and on air.


As to why RTL was on the routers at LWT in the first place, well there are legitimate reasons why it could be coming into the building. However it's too much of a coincidence to not be have been there for engineer nightshift entertainment!

Have YouTube recently shrunk the video player?
