Shows your Parents banned that your mates all watched

[TheOnlyLivingMumInNewCross]

After the thread regards our top 3 most loved Shows, I was talking to DH about mine and the ones I wanted to watch in my teens but my parents banned.

So, who else was banned from watching a show all your mates watched and why were you banned?
Mine are Heartbreak High and Hollyoaks.
Both shows I wanted to watch as everyone raved about them. Both shows which my parents decided to watch with me the first time.

It did not go well.

The episode of Heartbreak High ended with someone going into what was quite graphic labour for teatime on BBC 2. That was a huge no for the parents.
The episode of Hollyoaks which they saw was when Natasha, the posh daughter of the pub owner, died after taking pills.

I was probably about 12 for the first one and 14 for the other. I got round the Hollyoaks ban as despite their strict t.v. policy they used to leave my sis and I every Sunday for at least an hour and a half to go to Tesco so I'd watch E4 and the omnibus

What were yours?

Grange Hill here, too. But I was never given a reason why that I can remember.
I wish I'd known that so many other people weren't allowed to watch it as it always felt so unfair.
I did manage to watch some of It, though. And I think I even had the Just Say No single.
I feel very old, now.

Bay watch

I was t allowed to watch the Simpsons until I was 15, nor was I allowed to watch Big Brother.

I like the Simpsons but it’s not that much of a loss.

Tiswas,The Young Ones, Big Breakfast.I did feel out of the loop regularly tbh. One of my dc has never watched TV though but she doesn't seem to feel out of the loop like I did.

Hong Kong Phooey (spelling?) because it was a cartoon and (horror!) it was American.

She wasn't keen on Scooby Doo for the same reasons.

To my immense and never ending bitterness she was quite happy to let my DCs watch no end of crap when she looked after them.

Casualty.

Brookside when there was the 'body under the patio' storyline.
