There are always going to be people that complain about violence of TV, sexual or otherwise. The fact that this shit rag paper picked up on it seems to sum up everything that’s wrong with Britain’s tabloid press. Anyone with any sense will tell you that although it is extremely hard to watch, the scene was handled in a sensitive manner, rather than in a Michael Winneresque spectator sport depiction (as seen in the original version of DEATH WISH 2, for instance), so for them to run with such sensationalism just underlines why papers like Metro and The Daily Mail are only good for one thing – wiping your arse on them. |

The Metro is shite. All they seem to do is hang around Twitter all day and then type it up. Lazy slags. Funny thing about that article, is that it claims to start with the bad quotes and then move on to those who were defending it. Well, to me, none of the 'bad' quotes were actually that bad, they certainly were not hating on the programme. Metro idiots. That 'newpaper' seems to be intent on wasting as much paper as possible. |

Isn't the Metro a free newspaper? ...and worth every penny, by the sound of it! Sorry, couldn't resist a bad joke  |

Whoops....probably should have mentioned that, sorry  To be honest, I don't even read the metro - I don't even remember how I came across it! It just seems, that they sensationalise the whole thing, by, as you say, using "bad" quotes from twitter - which aren't even that "bad"!!  All in all, one of my first contributions to this thread was pretty pathetic!!

**SPOILER ALERT**I heard that channel 4 are defending the 'This is England rape scene', as it had sparked complaints about it actually being broadcast. I am particularly glad that Shane decided to do it that way. Rape is very serious and I'm glad it wasn't glossed over/tossed aside. It's serious and should be treated as such....anyway, here's the article: www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/news/a278616/channel-4-defends-this-is-england-rape.htmlP.S. does this conteract my pathetic Metro article?! ;D P.P.S does this need a spoilery thing?! Yes! Just include it yourself at the beginning of a post. Thanks, Dave - I'll try to remember/do it next time
