BLUE MOVIE BRITAIN traces the rise and fall of the British sex movie boom from the 50s to 70s from the early "nudie" films to saucy sex comedies and Carry On inspired sex flicks. It's a tale of wife swapping, dirty plumbers, randy taxi drivers, naughty housewives, schools for sex, prostitutes and tons of "ooh err missus!"

I think the answer is that the movies could be expensive to clear worldwide...currently there's quite a lot of fair dealing.
