‘Porn with a plot’: Steamy pool date stuns Bachelor fans

FANS are outraged after an episode of The Bachelor seemed to suddenly morph from a show about finding love into a full-blown “porn” movie.

LET’S face it. Once we get to the pointy end of a Bachelor season, before the finale, things can get really dull.

The villains have left, the “quirky” girls are gone, the drama has evaporated, and all we’re left with are genuine feelings and romantic dates. In other words … boring stuff.

CATCH UP ON THE LATEST BACHELOR RECAP

Which is why last night’s raunchy pool scene between Nick ‘Honey Badger’ Cummins and Sophie Tieman came as such a surprise. The pair had just played one-a-side hockey at the local mall (nothing says sexy like rental sportswear) when they moved their date to the heated pool at Nick’s Bachelor pad.

And their behaviour really flirted with the guidelines for the show’s timeslot.

I mean …

We’re only 98 per cent sure she’s wearing a bikini top.

Needless to say, viewers went a little wild over the steamy moment — with one Twitter user even describing it as “porn with a plot”.

That pool scene went from zero to 100 rather quickly #TheBachelorAU pic.twitter.com/hP2kWgQmjK

Hang on, when did I stop watching #TheBachelorAU and start watching a porn with plot? #pwp

I’m sorry, but what is the rating for #TheBachelorAU? Not sure I’m old enough to be watching that moment with Nick and Sophie in the spa. Up the 7:30pm time slot. 😂 pic.twitter.com/kAzEof71LS

How the hell did Nick notice fire Sophie's eyes when she's strutting around in that tiny bikini? I'm straight but even I have had trouble focussing on her face since she disrobed #thebachelorau
