A SAUCY ice cream ad which showed a PRIEST in a sexy clinch with a NUN has been banned. The advertisement for posh Antonio Federici Gelato Italiano ice cream featured a snap of the cleric wearing rosary beads and holding a pot of ice cream in his hand puckering up to a nun in full habit, accompanied by the slogan ‘KISS TEMPTATION’.
Ten people complained to advertising watchdogs that the ad was offensive to demeaning towards people who serve the church
