British girls gone wild: Fury over plans to bring risque U.S. show to UK
With the kind of stuff shown in Europe in general on TV, I’m shocked this is a big deal.

A notorious television show which encourages drunk women to strip and simulate sex acts should be banned from filming in Britain, MPs said yesterday.
Disgusted politicians described Girls Gone Wild as ‘demeaning, exploitative and casualised prostitution’ and urged the Home Office to stop its makers entering the country.
The show’s creators plan to launch in the UK in the next few weeks after conducting an online poll to find the ‘best venues’ to visit in its infamous tour bus.
The programme, which has been broadcast in the U.S. since 1997, features camera crews approaching intoxicated young women in bars and nightclubs and urging them to expose themselves in return for t–shirts and other merchandise.
Frequently they are also filmed kissing each other and simulating lewd sex acts in front of crowds of young men.
It is expected to be broadcast on a pay–per–view adult channel in the UK that will be available on many digital television packages.
