The movie Skeletonman, which was telecast on June 14 at 7.45pm on MediaCorp TV Channel 5, contained strong violence and gore.

However, we found that with carefully-executed edits, the gore and violence could be suitably toned down without compromising the story line.

With the necessary edits, the title was also within the guidelines for prime-time telecast.

We wish to assure our viewers that we give careful consideration to the entertainment value of all our programmes after they have been edited for telecast.

If a title, due to thematic or censorship issues, is found unsuitable for prime-time telecast, we will ensure that it is appropriately scheduled in a later night slot, whereby viewers' enjoyment of our programmes will not be compromised.

We thank Dr Wong for his feedback.
