On  the other hand we have X Videos which is filled with sleaze and nudity. It has been passed with only one sentence deleted.”

The sentence  that has been  ordered out had a mention of the prime minister.

X Videos is the story of   three friends ,one of whom decides to make a sex video with his wife to “look back in lustful nostalgia when they grow old”  .However the sex video is leaked and the far-seeing husband’s  wife is shamed on the internet.
