This is interesting because in the U.S. you can show a horrific amount of violence on what purports to be a children's show, but sex (sshhh! don't even say the word!).
Looks like DW is going the way of TW - ramping up violence to a level unacceptable for viewing by young children. If I were a Brit - I'd be way pissed.
Dr Who has ALWAYS been a children's show - scarey enough that the little one's hide behind the sofa but not so dark that they are having nightmares. WTF is wrong with the BBC.
