The Council has written to M6 concerning the broadcast of the series Prison Break since August 31, 2006 at 8:50 pm, some episodes of which are classified as category III(not recommended for children under 12) and others as category II(not recommended for children under 10).
In the Council's view, the series features numerous scenes of violence in a prison setting that is disturbing for young children. The category II classification does not therefore seem appropriate. The Council therefore asked the channel to classify all episodes as category III and to broadcast them after 10 pm.
