Here in the UK, the newly created Broadcasting Standards Council has just
upheld its first complaint -- regarding an episode of Twin Peaks. Eight
viewers (out of an audience of somewhere near 3.5 million, I think) complained
that the scene showing the murder of Maddie Ferguson by Leland/BOB was
unsuitable for public viewing. The Broadcasting Standards Council agreed.
