Certification

The British Board of Film Classification guidelines (18)

18 works are for adults and can contain strong issues such as:
  • very strong violence 
  • frequent strong language (eg 'f***') and/or very strong language (eg ‘c***’) 
  • strong portrayals of sexual activity
  • scenes of sexual violence 
  • strong horror 
  • strong blood and gore
  • real sex (in some circumstances)
  • discriminatory language and behaviour
There can be strong and detailed portrayals of sex at 18, including full nudity. There are no constraints on nudity in a non-sexual or educational context.
Very strong, crude and explicit sex references are permitted at 18.
An 18 film or DVD might also contain depictions of real sex if it is justified by context, as long as the film or DVD is not a sex work.
At 18 drug taking may be shown but the work as a whole must not promote or encourage drug misuse.

(At first we thought we were going to have the cirtification as 15, but after creating our film trailer we decided to use an 18)
