United Kingdom Will the British Board of Film Classification pass Lars von Trier's ANTICHRIST uncut?

I know this is only relevant to a certain section of the forum (the UK), but I've always been interested in global film ratings and censorship, and, since for obvious reasons the BBFC is one of them that I understand best, I wanted to take a poll and see who thinks Lars von Trier's Antichrist will ever be seen uncut in the UK. I think everyone can agree that the film will be '18', but the issue is, will it be cut at all for that category, or (and this is very rare nowadays) denied a certificate altogether?

To get an idea of the film's content, read Roger Ebert's expanded review from Cannes.

Now consider this: While this may have been an obvious yes on either cuts or denial some years ago, the BBFCs standards have relaxed significantly within the past ten years. Films like Salo (which had been banned before), 9 Songs, Shortbus, Baise-Moi and Irreversible have all been passed uncut at '18' within the last ten years (9 Songs, Shortbus and Baise-Moi all contain explicit images of real sex, while both Salo and Irreversible contain explicit simulated sexual violence).
