A CHILDREN’S television presenter appeared in court charged with possessing extreme animal porn.

Stephen Kish is accused of possessing 27 extreme images in Hove.

The 30-year-old presenter of Officially Amazing on CBBC denied the charge at Brighton Magistrates’ Court.

The charge states that he “possessed extreme pornographic images, namely 27, which portrayed in an explicit and realistic way, a person performing an act of intercourse with a live unknown animal”.

It states the images “are grossly offensive, disgusting, or otherwise of an obscene character, and a reasonable person looking at the images would think that any such person or animal was real”.

Kish, of Church Road, Hove, runs dog-walking firm Tails of Love and Pet Care.

He was bailed to appear before Lewes Crown Court on October 31.
