BBC Looks at 'Hardcore Profits'

LONDON — Documentary filmmaker Tim Samuels looked at the worldwide impact of adult material in "Hardcore Profits," a two-part program that started airing on BBC in the U.K. this week.

In the first episode, which aired Monday night, Samuels looked at the ready availability of adult material through new technologies and visited the offices of AEBN founder Scott Coffman, who showed him the Real Touch device that simulates contact in sync with the video being shown.

Samuels also spoke with adult performers on sets in Los Angeles, and then went to Ghana to talk with local authorities about how U.S.-made porn scenes are influencing sexual behavior in Africa.

The second part of the program will explain how hotel chains, mobile phone companies, Internet search engines and other mainstream enterprises indirectly make profits from adult content and discuss "extreme pornography," including an interview with Hustler founder Larry Flynt where Flynt reportedly said that he thinks porn is going too far.

The first part of "Hardcore Profits" will be repeated on BBC 1 on Friday, and the second part will air on BBC 1 and BBC 2 next week. It can also be viewed in the U.K. at the BBC website.
