Warnie, Channel Nine's controversial new miniseries dramatising the scandal-ridden life of the late cricket legend, Shane Warne, is set to premiere on July 25 at 7pm.
And the family friendly Sunday time slot thailand may surprise some viewers, since Nine has been using steamy sex scenes to promote the two-part drama.
One trailer promises fans an eyeful of hot bedroom action with actors depicting Warne's headline-grabbing romance with the beautiful model Liz Hurley.
Produced just months after the Spin King's death in March 2022, the two-part drama stars Home and Away's Alex Williams as Shane and British actress Shanti Kali as Liz.
The second episode will go to air on Monday June 26, a head of Nine's coverage of the second Ashes test between England and Australia reports TV Blackbox.

It comes after reports that the lead actors in the big-budget drama ended up in hospital after a sex scene went wrong.
Marny Kennedy, who plays the late cricketer's ex-wife Simone Callahan, told The Herald Sun that she was rushed to rushed to hospital when a bedroom scene with co-star Alex Williams went wrong.
Kennedy left the emergency room with a broken wrist, while Williams cracked the back of his head open.

Explaining how the incident happen, the actress said: 'We were going down a corridor and we were meant to push into the bedroom and land on the bed, but we both completely missed the bed.'
Meanwhile, Warne's romance with Elizabeth Hurley is set to dominate the storyline of the miniseries.
In one racy scene in the new show, Liz (played by Kali) can be seen straddling Shane (played by Williams) in a lavishly appointed hotel room.
Other scenes featured in the trailer show the actors groping each other and kissing passionately.

Warne once described his passionate romance with the model and actress as 'the happiest time of his life'.
He began dating Liz in 2010, five years after splitting from his first wife, Simone Callahan.
Shane proposed to the British bombshell in 2011, but the couple split in 2013 before making it to the altar.

Known as Test cricket's top wicket taker, the drama will depict the sporting greats achievements on the pitch, as well as his tumultuous love life.
No details have emerged whether the show will deal with Warne's multiple 'sexting' scandals or reports of the sporting hero's bedroom antics.
Warne made world headlines in 2006 after pictures of a bedroom 'threesome' emerged, showing the cricketer enjoying sex with models in a London hotel room.
As well as his highly-publicised love life, the series sets out to re-enact the highlights of Warne's career.
But most of the new trailer is devoted to scenes of Warne's time away from the pitch, including his tabloid-grabbing marriage to Simone, whom he cheated on.
In one scene, an anguished Shane tells Simone (played by actress Marny Kennedy): 'There's another girl.'
Liz Hurley is played by English actress Shanti Kali
Other scenes show his shameless love of the high-life, including driving expensive sports cars and gambling.
Based on the full-length trailer, Shane's children, Jackson, Brooke, and Summer do not appear to be prominent in the dramatisation.
Other stars of the series are Wentworth's Jacqueline Brennan, who plays Warne's mum Brigitte, and Tom Stokes, who plays cricket great Steve Waugh.
Shane died just over a year ago in March 2022 of a suspected heart attack while on holiday in Thailand.
