Babeworld
Babeworld was a British adult chat television broadcaster on Sky (UK & Ireland) from 2006 until 2011. Both the channel and programme were named ''Babeworld''. It launched on Sky on 2 March 2006, replacing the revived version of L!VE TV. In 2007 and 2008, it was also responsible for the channel House of Fun TV, later renamed ''Babeworld XXXTRA'' (''Babeworld TV Extra'') which replaced it on the Sky EPG in mid-2008. The two channels' numbers on the EPG were 909 and 962 ''(in 2007)'', then 908 and 949 ''(in 2008)'', and 908 and 952 ''(in 2010)''. In 2010, the channels were taken over by Bluebird TV, which went on to become a large adult content producer. Because the Babeworld TV Limited company was no longer deemed to have "general control" over its broadcasts, the main Babeworld channel closed on 22 October 2011, two days prior to Ofcom publishing a notice of revocation for its broadcast licence. History In November 2006, ICSTIS fined Babeworld's telephone network £10,000, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

L!VE TV
L!VE TV was a British television station that was operated by Mirror Group Newspapers on cable television from 12 June 1995 until 5 November 1999. It was later revived for Sky from 2003. In 2006, L!VE TV's name was changed to Babeworld to reflect the channel's gradual change of focus towards "adult material". Background L!VE TV was proposed by David Montgomery as MGN's foray into pay television and due to the dominance on satellite of Sky Television, the decision was made to launch channels exclusively on cable. In February 1995, Mirror Television, a Mirror Group plc subsidiary, bought flagship cable channel Wire TV which included sports content shown at certain times during Wire's output. Sports programming on Wire had been expanded when several sporting rights were acquired, such as Vauxhall Conference football, the live broadcast rights to Lennox Lewis's WBC title fights and the 1996 Cricket World Cup, plus other sporting coverage following a deal with Chrysalis ...

Pornography In The United Kingdom
Pornography in the United Kingdom is regulated by a variety of laws, regulations, judicial processes, and voluntary schemes. Pornographic material generally has to be assessed by regulators or courts to determine its legality. The Victorian pornographic tradition included French photographs, erotic prints, and printed literature. As technology has advanced, pornography has taken diverse forms and become more widespread in society. In the twentieth century the production of pornographic magazines and films developed, and by the twenty-first century pornography was available by telephone, on television and via the internet. However, access to pornography has generally been more restricted than it has been in comparable Western countries. By 2006 the UK pornography industry was estimated to be worth about billion, compared to billion worldwide. Legal situation The UK has a markedly different tradition of pornography regulation from that found in most other Western countri ...

Television Channels And Stations Established In 2006
Television, sometimes shortened to TV, is a telecommunication medium for transmitting moving images and sound. The term can refer to a television set, or the medium of television transmission. Television is a mass medium for advertising, entertainment, news, and sports. Television became available in crude experimental forms in the late 1920s, but only after several years of further development was the new technology marketed to consumers. After World War II, an improved form of black-and-white television broadcasting became popular in the United Kingdom and the United States, and television sets became commonplace in homes, businesses, and institutions.
