I don't know the legalities, but, can refere this story I know to be true. Friend of mine makes porn films, mainly BDSM with all the usuall bits, most of them listed in your post. His editing computer breaks, and he sends it back, with his latest production on it. The computer firm, which is where he bought the machine, call the police after viewing a considerable amount of his fottage. Police arrive on the day it was to be picked up, long and short, including contact with various government departments and porn regulatory bodies, he was not charged, and his computer was returned, it turns out in his case, it's ok for him to make the films in the UK but he is not allowed to sell the films in or from the UK ( His films have a budget of about 20 -30 K ) so he travells abroad to sell the master, and then the foreign company put it on the shelves in this country...Just thought I would throw that in the pot...
