Babeworld

In November 2006, ICSTIS fined Babeworld's telephone network £10,000, because the channel was running a sexually-explicit service during the daytime.[13]

In 2007, House of Fun TV ran the nightly show Just Girly, and a short-run series with three male hosts, Boys Next Door. As male presenters are rare on adult chat channels, this was one of the only programmes of its kind ever to be broadcast, coinciding with the regular show on GAYtv.

In November 2007, the Babeworld channel was reproached and fined £25,000 by Ofcom[14][1] for broadcasting sexually-explicit material at 9.15pm. The ruling said that "the content was so explicit, and in particular the language, it was considered to be 'adult-sex' material. This meant it should have been broadcast under encryption."[1][14]

Babeworld's programmes Babeworld TV,[15] Freeblue 1[16] and Bluebird Daytime TV[17] had at various times been found to breach the BCAP code due to their sexually explicit content between 2009 and 2011.

On 24 October 2011, the channel had its broadcasting licence revoked by Ofcom after the licensee, Babeworld TV Limited, failed to satisfy the regulator that it had "general control over which programmes and other services were comprised in the Service". Ofcom therefore concluded that Babeworld TV Limited was not the provider of its licensed services in accordance with section 362(2) of the Communications Act 2003.[12] Both House of Fun and The Other Side had their licences revoked at the same time, for the same reason.[12]
