What is the First Banned music Video in UK?

The first ever banned music video in the UK was "Too Fat (Porky's Song) "by KLF in 1988. Although the band denied allegations that the song is homophobic, The song's music video shows the duo driving along the highway and deliberately running over overweight bystanders who are depicted to represent Margaret Thatcher as well as members of the public and celebrities (for example, Diana, Princess of Wales and Elton John). As a result, it was immediately banned by both BBC and Channel 4 and later even led to them splitting with their main label in 1992.
