Angry Inappropriate Adverts on kids TV

One thing that is really irritating me at the moment is when some TV channels that are specifically designed for young kids (Nick Jr, Tiny Pop etc) put inappropriate adverts on during the breaks.

This morning for example, I saw in the middle of Dora the Explorer (I think) an advert for the upcoming Xman 3 Cert 15. What?!!! It upset them somewhat to see a completely blue faced man with disfigured teeth etc.
My kids will not see this film (not for a decade or so anyway) and it was completley inappropriate to show it at 7.30 on a dedicated toddler's TV Channel.

It's not the first time this has happened and I'm sure not the last.....

It almost defies having a watershed...
