The BBC has dropped plans to show a fictional terror attack in an episode of Casualty to avoid offending Muslims.

The first show of the hospital drama's new series was to have featured a storyline about an explosion caused by Islamic extremists.

 Now the bomb will be set off by animal rights campaigners instead.

 

A BBC spokesman said: "With any storyline there are lots of ideas that get put forward but don't make the series."
