The documentary showed a scene where a young woman went naked for a shower tan.

– There was also no sexual arousal whatsoever. It was a bit like a sauna scene. Being naked in a sauna is natural for Finns. Shower tanning, on the other hand, belongs to that category, no matter what you think about it.

According to Ikonen, the point of the program was not nudity or scantily clad clothing, although bikinis are strongly part of the nature of the sport.

– The point was to photograph the sport of bikini fitness. It describes a lot of training and the comprehensiveness that the sport requires.

The program was not classified as “not suitable for children”. Therefore, there was nothing wrong with the time of presentation. The children’s programs had already ended an hour before the start of the documentary.
