FILM CLASSIFICATION

The BBFC, british board of film classification, are highly experts and experienced regulators for film industries and video games. They help with developing media to categorise what they produce.


Some examples of the categorising for certificates are these. A PG certificate film is classified as a film that children( people below the age of 12) are allowed to view, as long as they get a guardian to accompany them in the viewing. A film that's got the certificate classified as a 'U', is a film that children are allowed to view without a guardian with them, i.e it has been judged as suitable for young ages. 
When language is featured in a PG it must only include mild bad language, where as a film certificate of a 'U' should use mild bad language infrequently. in a 'PG' illegal drugs are allowed to be referenced as long as they show a message suggesting that it's anti-drugs. However a film with a 'U' certificate should show no illegal drug references unless the film portrays a very clear anti-drug outlook.
