- Do you have a story about a Love Island contestant? Email tips@dailymail.com
Although its been on TV screens for less than a week, controversial dating show Love Island Australia has already spawned discussion over its sexy content.
The show adheres to Mature Adult (MA) rating limits, which states the network CAN show the contestants' private parts - but only under certain circumstances.
Channel Nine's Chief Classification Officer, Richard Lyle, revealed which saucy clips they will broadcast, and which X-rated clips will stay strictly off limits.

When it comes to the contestants' private parts, Richard told TV Tonight this week they can show one of the blokes' private parts - but only in 'non sexual' situations.
'The girls could go topless, and skinny dipping,' Richard explained. 'The boys could have penis-shots, but no erections, which [are] seen as a sexual act.'
This explains why producers were able to show Charlie Taylor's wardrobe malfunction during Tuesday night's episode.

Steamy scenes: Channel Nine can broadcast nudity in a non-sexual context
The former rugby league player shared a little more than he intended on Tuesday night's episode while larking about in a pair of perilously small boxers.
The cheeky 22-year-old left viewers blushing when he accidentally flashed the cameras with a glimpse into his boxers while stretching out on his bed.
Charlie suffered the slip-up while doing an impression of newcomer Kim Hartnett's sleeping position.

Bedroom antics: Cassidy McGill and Grant Crapp got intimate under the doona on Tuesday night's episode
In addition, scenes involving the cast getting intimate under the covers can be broadcast - but the AM guidelines prohibit Nine from showing the full Monty.
Richard explained: '[Sex] can be portrayed as low level as kissing and cuddling, but they might go under the doona covers getting more and more carried away, which is why you have a lot of shots of that big moon.'
On Tuesday night, Love Island showed Cassidy McGill and Grant Crapp become the first contestants to 'fool around' on camera.
As they cuddled up in bed, the genetically-blessed couple got hot and heavy under the doona.

Similarly, the UK version of the show broadcasts kissing and movement under the covers, without showing anything X-rated.
The Aussie show's British counterpart famously showed season two contestants Emma-Jane Woodhams and Terry Walsh famously romped over the covers, as they believed their antics would not be broadcast.
However, British broadcaster ITV skirted around the issue by slicing together clips of their roommates' reactions.

Erin said she is keen to get amorous with her fellow housemates in the villa in Majorca.
'I love sex, who doesn't? I will have sex anywhere if I am horny enough. But I will try not to because it is on TV and I don't want to be a porn star,' she told the Sunday Telegraph.
She added: 'If you see me whispering under the blanket, I'm just having a chat to my f***y.'
