A censored 'TV Edit' of the UK thriller DIRTY GAMES (2022) rated MA15+ (Strong sex scenes). Uncut version was R18+ (High impact sex scenes). The running time was reduced from 87 to 79-minutes. Cuts appear to be for nudity & sex scenes.

Amazingly, Border Force thought ORGY OF THE DEAD (1965), a 60 year old movie, may be Refused Classification (banned) material. The Classification Board disagreed & just awarded it an MA15+ (Strong nudity & sexualised imagery). It was likely shipped with DORIANA GRAY (1976).
