Cartoon watchers in Britain can't see smoking scenes in some episodes of audience-prevalent Tom and Jerry that was banned by the goverment agency after the concerned authorities received tv-goer's complaints
Scenes that appear to glamorise smoking are to be edited out of Tom and Jerry cartoons following complaints to Ofcom, the broadcasting watchdog, that they are not appropriate to be shown to children.
The complaint, published yesterday[21/8/06] by Ofcom, was about two cartoons - Texas Tom and Tennis Chumps - transmitted on Turner Broadcasting's children's channel, Boomerang. More than half (56%) of the channel's audience are aged four to 14.
