A dating show on Netflix has been blasted as disrespectful for featuring the Last Post during a montage of contestants engaging in sexual acts.
Too Hot To Handle follows a cast of "gorgeous singles" on a tropical island. To win the grand prize, they have to give up sex, aswell as kissing, sexual contact and self-gratification.
Each time the rules are broken the shared $US200,000 ($NZD300,000) prize get smaller.
While the show won't be winning a Sundance award anytime soon, one scene has rubbed veteran advocacy groups up the wrong way.
The new third season is based on the Turks and Caicos Islands and features more than a dozen bathing suit-clad singles including one Australian.
The music on the montage of their activities is the Last Post – a bugle call used across the commonwealth to signify a final farewell at Anzac Day and Remembrance Day services, as well as military funerals.
The show's narrator – comedian Desiree Burch – then says: "I think we all need to take a moment and pay our respects to our dearly departed prize fund.
