It's asking for a PIN (note: not personal identification number number).

No those two channels aren't PPV, they are channels set up to allow you
to watch certain certificated films anytime of the day, OFCOM now allows
certain cert films to be shown before their watershed as long as they
are PIN protected.

The request for the PIN is to ensure minors are not able to view the
film, the PIN will be the last 4 digits of your first viewing card,
unless you were sensible enough to change the PIN if you have kids, also
if you have kids I'd set the PIN required on all purchases over £0.00
and for going online as some online services charge a premium to call
up.

Playing games doesn't necessarily mean going online/paying.

:O) No, I meant the word minors. I think Billy Bragg's biog is called
something like 'still suitable for miners'
