'Home And Away' lesbian kiss not censored?

Rumours that Australia's Seven Network has censored a controversial upcoming lesbian kiss in Home And Away are not true, claims fan site Back To The Bay.

A media storm erupted over the weekend following a report in The Australian newspaper that producers of the soap had bowed to pressure from conservative groups and censored a kissing scene between policewoman Charlie Buckton (Esther Anderson) and deckhand Joey Collins (Kate Bell).

However, the website stated: "A source on the show contacted us today to set the record straight, that the articles are completely unfounded and that the kiss will be airing on Tuesday night as originally planned."
