North Korea TV censors Alan Titchmarsh's trousers
Quick Glance: Censorship in North Korea Due to Alan Titchmarsh's Blue Jeans
  • Renowned presenter Alan Titchmarsh faced unexpected censorship in North Korea for wearing blue jeans during a TV appearance.

  • In an episode of his Garden Secrets series, the 74-year-old Titchmarsh visited Hatfield House in Hertfordshire to explore historical gardens.

  • The broadcast of the episode in North Korea was altered to conceal Titchmarsh's blue jeans, which have been banned in the country since the 1990s.

  • Despite the censorship, the episode was aired multiple times on North Korean TV with Titchmarsh's commentary replaced by North Korean narrators.
