Paddington's Bear Faced Cheek

Oh dear I see that a childhood favourite, Paddington, has fallen foul of Nanny's censors.

The newly released Paddington film has garnered some free PR courtesy of the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), which has decide in its infinite dwisdom to award the film a PG rating.

For why?

"dangerous behaviour, mild threat, mild sex references (and) mild bad language". 

Eh??

As per the Telegraph it said "infrequent scenes of dangerous behaviour" included Paddington hiding in a fridge, while "mild threat" was seen when a villain "threatens to kill and stuff" the famous bear.

Among the "mild sex references" is a "comic sequence in which a man disguised as a woman is flirted with by another man".

Unbelievable!

During this season of overindulgence, many a child will go to pantomimes which are stuffed to the gunnels with sexual innuendo, cross dressing and threats to kill.

These are not rated as PG, why is Paddington thusly rated?

Frankly I am surprised that Nanny didn't pick up on the far more dnagerous themes:

- Paddington is appraoched in a station by a middle aged man, who offers to take him into his home

- Paddington is addicted to marmalade sarnies ans cocoa (both very high in sugar)

- He's an illegal immigrant etc etc
