Yeah - I was hoping that 25 years on, the moral panic over video nasties may have subsided (especially as most of the "banned" list have now, I believe, been legalised in recent years anyway). Though it seems that most of the press are still going with the "but now porn can be sold to children" angle.

I liked this article - the only mainstream article I've so far seen that covers the "video nasties" history of the law.
