The statement of reasons for the release states: “Often there is vulgar and sexualised language, but viewers aged 12 and over can classify this in the context of the over-the-top comedy plot full of gossip that has nothing to do with their own world. A disorienting role model effect or other impairments are therefore not to be feared. "
