This is a shame and it is likely that future stations across the world, may not air the kiss, in fear of backlash. It is bad, but unfortunetly there are homophobic people in the world and this means that stations need to be careful as to what they air. I thought the Clude stoyline in a respectful and natural way. People probably feel like their having this shoved down their throats, even though everyone who wtahces the show knew a kiss was pending.
