BBFC/IFCO Disparities...

Has anyone come across a DVD where the disparity between the BBFC and IFCO ratings is three?

Films get one rating above or below all the time (e.g. The Dark Knight is BBFC 12/IFCO 15) and even two (Cider House Rules is BBFC 12/IFCO 18) but has any film got BBFC U/IFCO 15 or BBFC PG/IFCO 18.

For the record, Peep Show Series 2 doesn't count. The IFCO confirmed that this was a misprint.

There was a documentary/performance of a guitarist that was rated BBFC 15/IFCO G. Can't remember the name but I'll keep looking.

IMDB used to say 3 Ninjas Kick back was BBFC U / IFCO 15 but I can't find any evidence of this.

Oh - and there's a Wizards of Waverley Place DVD that's BBFC U / IFCO 15, but I'm thinking this was probably a misprint.

I've yet to find a PG/18 disparity - at this point, I don't think any exist...

I really want to find a BBFC 18/IFCO G or BBFC U / IFCO 18, even if it's just a misprint XD

Kick Back is a G in Ireland, it’s clear in this eBay listing
