Controversial 'body positive' Channel 4 series Naked Education which showed adults stripping nude in front of children becomes one of the most complained about programmes of the year - as latest episode shows naked bicycle ride 




Highly controversial show Naked Education has become one of the most complained about programmes of the year after yet another explicit episode saw participants take part in a naked bicycle ride.

The Channel 4 'body positive' programme featured pre-watershed nudity, drawing further complaints from members of the public outraged at the show.

Broadcast watchdog Ofcom received another 53 complaints after the episode aired last week.

It takes the total to more than 1,200 complaints since the series began this year. 

Some have even called for the show to be banned over fears about the impact of its explicit content on children.

An earlier episode featured adults stripping naked in front of a live audience of children as young as 14.

The show's producers claimed the nudity was an effort to show what different bodies look like and reduce insecurity. 

The group of adults included a Youtuber who reviews sex toys and a woman who wrote and performed a song about masturbation.

Celebrity presenters on the show include Anna Richardson, former Love Island contestant Dr Alex George and Yinka Bokinni who are 'on a mission to normalise all body types, champion our differences and break down stereotypes'.

Ms Richardson, 52, who also fronts Channel 4's Naked Attraction dating programme, previously described Naked Education as 'educational, emotional [and] joyous'.

She added: 'If you're curious about your body, and your life's journey (whatever that may be), then tune in. We all need connection right now.'

In another episode, two trans men, Lucian and Finlay, discussed their gender journeys and the different stages they were in as they transitioned. 

The first episode of the six-part series aired on April 4 and received 920 complaints from viewers.

Conservative MP Jonathan Gullis previously criticised the show and claimed adults stripping naked is 'not how responsible sex education should happen'.

He said: 'How on earth Channel 4 believe this show to be appropriate bewilders me.'

In response to previous criticism of the programme, Channel 4's Chief Content Officer Ian Katz said: 'Anyone who suggests that the Channel 4 show Naked Education promotes paedophilia or is abusive of children almost certainly hasn’t watched it.'

Mr Katz's statement comes after a Channel 4 spokesperson previously told MailOnline: 'All the teenagers who participated in Naked Education did so with appropriate consent.

'They and their guardians were fully aware and prepared to take part in the item about body taboos and they all had support throughout.'

The Good Man of Nanking

The Good Man of Nanking Taiwan, as known as Republic of China (ROC), the country where I was born and raised, is currently in a difficult situation both internally and internationally due to the complex relations between Taiwan, People’s Republic of China (PRC) and Japan. To understand the formation of the current situation and look for possible solution to the future, it is crucial to know the history between the three countries, especially the past hundred years. Besides, out of my curiosity for my well-respected grandfather, who was previously a general in Republic of China while it still represented the entire China, I want to learn the truth of the second Sino-Japanese war during WWII, which lasted eight years and caused millions of deaths. During the war, the most disputed tragedy was the “Nanking Massacre” and it is still a unresolved dilemma between Chinese and Japanese people as well as the government. From Wikipedia: “Nanking Massacre was an episode of mass murder and...
