Will Smith nervous about daughter dating
LONDON, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- A British network, trying to avoid further controversy after charges of racism on a reality show, decided to postpone airing its "wank week" programming.
The network's three late-night documentaries about masturbation were to have been broadcast next month, but were removed from the schedule, the Guardian said.
Channel 4's recently concluded "Celebrity Big Brother" created controversy for the network after thousands of viewers complained of alleged racist behavior toward one of the housemates.
Network officials said the documentaries could be broadcast at a later date, perhaps shown separately and not as part of a branded "wank week" season.
Several public figures, including former ITV chief executive Charles Allen, have pointed to "wank week" as an example to claim that Channel 4's standards are falling.
