| A 'hit' has been ordered on the Nine Network, with the communications watchdog to investigate whether its gritty gangland series Underbelly has breached classification guidelines.
But it's possible the broadcaster will beat the rap, with the investigation not likely to be completed until after the series has finished screening.
Christian group Festival of Light Australia says the screening of Underbelly, which traces the 1995-2004 gangland war between some of Melbourne's most notorious criminals, has breached industry code of practice classification guidelines on five separate occasions.
The group wants the show reclassified, saying there have been numerous occasions when scenes involving strong coarse language, drug use and nudity have been aired at an inappropriate time.
