Late-Night Blue Movie In Moscow's Red Square

A midnight traffic jam near Moscow's Kremlin has been blamed on a pornographic film that suddenly began playing on a giant billboard.

The nine-by-six-metre television screen began showing the two-minute flick in the centre of Russia's capital.

Stunned motorists slammed on their brakes to gawk at the blue movie.

"They couldn't believe their eyes," state media RIA said, citing an unidentified witness.

Some managed to leap out of their vehicles to film the incident - the footage then posted on YouTube.

But not long after Sky News Online stumbled on one censored clip, it had been removed from the video-sharing website "due to terms of use violation".

The advertising firm that owns the billboard said hackers broke into their system and switched on the scandalous short film.

"They were either acting out of hooliganism or were from a rival company," the firm's commercial director Viktor Laptev was reported as saying.

Moscow officials were studying the information and plan to heighten the security of data transmissions to advertising screens.

There has been a ban on nudity on Russian TV since before the Soviet Union fell in 1991.
