TIL that pornography shut down a TV network in Scotland. When Grampian Television staff in northern Scotland were found watching *Deep Throat* in the studio, the manager was fired. His union called a strike, ending ITV broadcasts in the area. The strike ended when the manager resigned “voluntarily”.
