Title: Some scenes may be distressing
Post by: Miss Demeanour on March 30, 2017, 08:42:24 PM: Every programme on the mainstream channels now seems to carry this ever so helpful warning.

This is from the soaps , to documentaries but interestingly not the news rubschin:

Often this is complimented by helpline advice after it has finished , whether it is for dementia, cancer, domestic violence, or a broken fingernail noooo:

Surely with every TV licence they should just have add a sentence stating watching TV might not be good for your health. Job done. Rather than listen to some contrite presenter / wannabe actor tilt his head ( imagined) and read robotic stylee evil:

They should just be forced to watch CBEEBIES on a 24hr loop until they have learnt their bloody lesson evil:
