The BBFC, or British Board of Film Classification, is an organization responsible for classifying films and video games in the United Kingdom. Established in 1912, its primary role is to provide age ratings and content advice to help viewers make informed choices about what to watch. The BBFC evaluates films based on various criteria, including language, violence, and sexual content. The BBFC's ratings range from U (Universal) to 18 (Adults Only), guiding audiences on the suitability of content for different age groups. The organization also engages in public consultations and works with filmmakers to ensure that classifications reflect societal standards and expectations.
