Episode 2 of 2

Duration: 1 hour

In the second part of Hardcore Profits, Tim Samuels explores the way in which porn is becoming more pervasive and extreme, and how even pensioners and religious organisations aren't immune to indirectly profiting from porn.

On set in America, Tim meets actors who say they feel pressure to undertake increasingly hardcore sex acts, and talks about this to the 'godfather of porn' Larry Flynt, who tells him that even he thinks porn is going too far.

After meeting with an ethical investment adviser to see if it is possible to avoid porn when creating investment portfolios, Tim examines pension and religious investment funds that seem to be profiting from the porn industry.
