Censorship…

Actually I just remembered a classic UK film censoring decision...

Nunchucks - Martial arts wepaon of choice for the many. But always somewhat of a prickly issue in the UK.

Teenage Ninja Turtles 2 (and in the Uk it was Mutant turtles because they didnt want kids knwoing what Nijas were). One of the Ninja T's has a fight with what the BBFC (Uk MPAA) thought were nunchucks. So they cut the scene. It later transpired that the nunchucks were infact sausages!!!

I SHIT YOU KNOW!

For years even the Great Bruce Lee suffered at the no nunchucks rule.

THAT is why I hated the BBFC and did a small dance the day James Furman (the then Hilter type head of authority) left.
