In 1974 the film "Emmanuelle" redefined the adult movie, with the British Board of Film Certification chairman James Ferman describing it as making "sex respectable in cinema". With an X certificate it made a star of actress Sylvia Kristel and launched one of the most successful film franchises of all time. In the programme film-maker Alex Cox reviews the controversy, the censorship, and the way that Emmanuelle altered what was acceptable for film-makers to show on screen. Also features Emanuelle star Laura Gemser.
