Surely it's only illegal in the UK for under-18s to buy games and cinema viewings....
Illegal?

It's odd. The law says I cannot buy an 18 cert game or film and let an under 18 see it, give or sell it to one or lend it to one.
Its effectively the same as cinema rules on 18 films. Under 18s are not allowed to see it. Anyone not taking precautions (checking IDs) or buying tickets for under 18s is breaking the law.
Its a little odd as it differs from alcohol laws (there's nothing illegal about a 12 year old having a beer, but I can't buy one for a 12 year old)
