How Programmes/Films are classified

Updated: Mar 13, 2024

What does BBFC stand for:

The British Board of Film Classification (BBFC)


Why the BBFC classify "13 reasons why" as a rated "18":

As the story develops, it covers several strong themes and issues. There is an emphasis on suicide, but also discussion and sight of self-harm, explorations of depression and other mental health issues, drug misuse, strong scenes of sexual assault, plotlines around the sexualisation of teenagers, especially girls, by other teenagers, bullying, and under-age drinking.


Were the warning for viewers about the scenes:

Ratings info provides concise explanations for why each episode, and the series as a whole, received particular BBFC age ratings.

Several episodes included warning text onscreen noting the sexual assault, suicide, and violence in these episodes.


For the rating for the tv show what my group is filming is going to be rated as a 15 age rated tv show.
