Italian TV is cutting several scenes from the controversial BBC series Rome because they are too sexy and violent. Senior officials at Italy's state TV company viewed the series in private and decided that at least a dozen bloodthirsty and racy scenes had to be cut from just the first episode before it could be screened.
The epic mini-series was filmed at a specially constructed £10 million set in the Italian capital.
