Watching Guardians Of the Galaxy, and scene where a guy gets his skull crushed whilst tied to a chair alarm ISIS/extremists, at 8:30, looked reminiscent of an ISIS execution video.

Or am I being prissy?

Good evening, PC. Bongser has never watched an ISIS execution video or, indeed Guardians of the Galaxy. Perhaps you should deny yourself both experiences and then need not go to bed with a torch.

Have you no shame? :wink:

There's a link on the top right of the page "Help & Feedback" which outlines how you can contact the BBC.

Worth noting that the film had a 12 rating on its UK cinema release

I wasn't complaining, but if it had a 12 then the BBC have done nothing wrong.
