Sky has been rapped by Ofcom for the second time in the space of a year over swearing in one of its repeat shows, this time Entourage.
Ofcom said a pre-watershed repeat of Entourage on the Sky Comedy channel in August failed to provide a mandatory pin code to protect under-18s, and the word “f***ing” was broadcast.
Sky stressed that the word came very soon after the show started and it was pulled with just three minutes having elapsed. In the UK, Ofcom’s code requires that people under 18 are protected from “unsuitable material” in programs.
