I would have thought a year 11 girl dating a year 7 boy would have been the big deal .. and illegal in most states (maximum 2 years age difference for under 16yo for penetrative sex) ... though there was no suggestion of tongue let alons more!<br/><br/>It's a strange world these days.

Does this mean that before any scripted show goes to air, that it has to be combed through to find any possible coincidence to any living or deceased person and that person/family tracked down and notified? Was the death of the schoolteacher that well known that the producers/ABC are supposed to know that the upcoming storyline was a possible coincidence? The show is clearly fiction and this was so obviously just an unfortunate coincidence I don't understand why the ABC had to apologise.

This is a good Australian comedy, which for the last decade is something of a rarity. Give it a chance without being so sensitive.
