Actor Craig McLachlan has been accused of repeatedly lying in his defamation trial after giving contradictory evidence about on-stage kissing during a 2014 production of The Rocky Horror Show.

Actor Craig McLachlan has been accused of repeatedly lying in his defamation trial, after giving contradictory evidence about on-stage kissing during a production of The Rocky Horror Show.

He said the only reason he did so was because he dropped a fake cigarette used as a prop and had to improvise while trying to retrieve it from the bed. This is something McLachlan said was "impossible" as there wasn't enough time during the scene and he was too focused on putting the e-cigarette in a specially designed pocket under the covers.
