Ban This Filth was a spoof television programme aired on Channel 4 in October 2004. The show was presented as a crusade against pornography, profanity and nudity on television. The three presenters are all elderly middle class women, who warn viewers what programmes not to watch in the coming week.[1] It is presented in a tongue-in-cheek fashion, with segments such as:

  • What not to watch, a review of programmes with nudity or pornographic scenes, the times and channels are given so viewers can avoid them
  • Review of pornographic DVDs, presented, as what not to buy
  • Interviews with porn stars, asking them to quit the business
  • Documentary segments covering adult babies, or dogging for example
