[HIGHLIGHTS] Children should only watch “Mary Poppins” under parental supervision

British film classification body British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) has changed the classification of the film “Mary Poppins” Almost 60 years after its first release, the film is being reclassified. The reason for this is the use of an outdated and derogatory term for indigenous ethnic groups in southern Africa.

The term is used in the film in two scenes with Admiral Boom, a neighbor of the Banks family. In one scene he asks the Banks children whether they want to "fight the Hottentots or dig for treasure"
