THE Beeb has been blasted for the “tawdry” output of BBC Three since the
channel was shifted online.
New seedy content to appear since it was axed as a TV station last month has
included shows about amputee porn and students selling their knickers to
perverts.
The channel, which broadcast comedy smashes Gavin & Stacey, Little Britain
and The Mighty Boosh when on TV, came under fire a decade ago over its lurid
content.

And there are concerns the service has gone back to its old ways now it is
sheltered on the corporation’s website.
The licence fee-funded service has items about whether having sex with a robot
is considered cheating as well as “young women on a mission to reclaim the
word ‘p***y’”.
The show Meet The Devotees sees host Emily Yates, who has cerebral palsy, get
in and out of her wheelchair in skimpy clothes for the gratification of
fetishists. One internet user even asks her to “spasm”.
It also features clips of amputees making sex videos for able-bodied men.
The short film People Pay Me For My Underwear, sees a young woman called Curvy
Jane supplementing her degree by selling her knickers online.
And the site features a video called Everybody Cries Their First Time about
part-time sex worker, Posie, who talks about her “traumatic first time”.
Claude Knights, boss of children’s charity Kidscape, said: “We have to ask why
the public’s licence fee is being spent on channels which offer such a
tawdry view of life.
“It is giving a very disturbing view of the world. Why would the BBC be
promoting or supporting this?”
A BBC spokesman said: “BBC Three informs, educates and entertains a young
audience and doesn’t shy away from covering issues that affect them.
“We’re proud of the role it plays in helping young people understand issues
and make sense of the world.”
