The Video Packaging Review Committee(VPRC), administered by the BBFC, but attended by industry representatives, was introduced in 1987. This is a voluntary system to prevent offence to members of the public caused by explicitly violent or sexual imagery on the covers of video cassettes. Cinema posters, only for films passed ‘18’, are also reviewed by a joint BBFC/Industry body.
