09:48 30 September 2010

Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks is about to cover another major issue: underage sex.

The soap, known for its hard hitting issues, is to tackle the subject with two of its 12-year-old characters becoming more intimate.

New comers Amber Sharpe (Lydia Lloyd Henry) and Finn OÂ’Connor (Connor Wilkinson) are to have sex for the first time in the topical storyline.

Neither are said to enjoy the experience, which only gets worse when Amber discovers sheÂ’s pregnant.

Paul Marquess, the 'Oaks’ newly appointed Boss has said that the storyline will reflect how the characters are not mature enough to deal with the situation they are in and that viewers shouldn’t expect a “fairytale ending”.
