Basically, the entire Miami Vice collection has been given an 18 certificate because someone gets Tango’d in the first season.

Screenshot from the BBFC app, relating to the 18 certificate episode of Miami Vice “Golden Triangle”.

“One cut required to sight of double ear clap for a 15 classification in accordance with BBFC imitable technique policy. An 18 is available uncut.”
