A COMPLAINT on behalf of Queen Elizabeth about a faked photograph of the Princess of Wales kissing soccer star Paul Gascoigne has been upheld by the Advertising Standards Authority.
The picture, based on the famous wedding day kiss between the Prince and Princess on the balcony of Buckingham Palace 15 years ago, was used in newspaper advertising for cable channel Live TV.

Kelvin MacKenzie, Live TV managing director and former editor of the Sun tabloid, said. "This image was simply a piece of fun I have no intention of withdrawing the advert."
