This is a description

1. BBFC
• BBFC stands for British Board of Film Classification. The BBFC give
films an age rating depending on it’s content for example “18+” for
any adult content in the film.
• The British Board of Film Censors was founded in 1912 by the film
industry when local authorities started to force their own censorship
standards on films. The BBFC was set up in order to bring a degree of
uniformity to those standards. The object was to create a body which
could make judgements that were acceptable nationally.

2. VIOLENCE
There are a number of highly stylized choreographed fight scenes
that are distanced from more brutal and realistic portrayals of
violence. The fighting involves the use of weapons such as guns,
knives, axes, explosive devices and prosthetic legs fashioned as
razor-sharp blades. The action in these scenes is fast-paced and
rapidly-edited, and although the violence is strong and bloody there
is no lingering focus on pain and injury. Bloody injury detail is also
present in the aftermath of violent incidents but this is again not
dwelt upon to any undue extent.
LANGUAGE
There is frequent use of strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker').
Other terms include 'wanker, 'shit, 'tits, 'whores' and the
discriminatory terms, 'nigger' and 'fag'.
The film also contains strong sex references.

3. ASA
• ASA stands for Advertising Standards Authority which is a self-
regulatory organisation of the advertising industry in the United
Kingdom.
• In 1961, the Advertising Association, following discussions with other
industry representatives, agreed that it was important that
advertisements were welcomed and trusted by the audience in non-
broadcast media too.
• In 1962, CAP established the ASA as the independent adjudicator
under the newly created Code. The Authority was set up to supervise
the working of the new self-regulatory system in the public interest.

4. PEGI
• PEGI stands for Pan European Game Information which is a video
game content rating system established to help European customers
make informed decisions on buying video games with logos on the
game cases.
• On 30 July 2012, PEGI became the sole system for age classification of
video games in the United Kingdom. As a result, games no longer
have to be rated separately by the BBFC. Products with PEGI ratings
are regularly available in countries outside Europe, having been
exported for language reasons.

5. PCC
• PCC stands for Press Complaints Commission which was a voluntary
regulatory body for British printed newspapers and magazines,
consisting of representatives of the major publishers.
• The press in the UK has been subject to self-regulation for over sixty
years. The self-regulatory era began with the creation of a voluntary
Press Council in 1953, which aimed to maintain high ethical standards
of journalism and to promote press freedom.

6. OFCOM
• OFCOM stands for Office Of Communications
