These figures are extracted from the classified area of the website.

The figures for the current year are updated periodically, but may be a few days out of date.

The BBFC maintains statistics dating back to 1912 on film.  Since the inception of the Video Recordings Act in 1984 records are very accurate.  For previous years the information is known not to be completely accurate as some records, mostly from before 1931, are now lost.  Information on films passed by the BBFC many years ago is added to the system when it is confirmed and so these figures may slightly change over time.

Prior to 1987 no distinction was made between film features, advertisements and trailers.
