# You mean as in words, not pictures?
Yep, that's all fine and dandy. Each case will be examined on its merits but it is extremely unlikely that any textual publication would be prosecuted (based on precedent).

# no, i mean pretty much anything that a certain mentalist posts
is not ok on the basis that it's fictional, I think XD

ok, I've not quite woken up yet, but having re read the sections, I think dave's work is covered by all of these.
except perhaps 65/8

# I think you're mis-reading 65/8
Specifically if an image of an imaginary child is found to be "child porn" then it will be treated in exactly the same way as an image of a real child.

So some of Dave's work (which thankfully I haven't seen, but have heard mentioned) probably is covered under this act.

So everyone who browsed this site and has one of his images in there cache should be mildly concerned.

So every shitty TV crime drama with a paedo scene is in fact illegal? That should clear the schedules.
