Actor Lucy Lawless and seven other Greenpeace protestors have pleaded guilty to unlawfully boarding a ship after appearing in the Auckland District Court this morning.
The group originally faced burglary charges but those were today withdrawn.
Lawless and seven activists carried out a four-day protest aboard oil drilling ship the Noble Discovery in February.
The group were arrested and charged with burglary.
The eight defendants have been granted bail and will reappear on September 14.
Outside court today Lawless said she was not sure if the impending conviction would affect her ability to travel with her job.

Wasn’t she once a NZ coal miner?
No way, Gabrielle was cute...but she just talked too much! Warrior women in sexy armor are just hot! (full disclosure...former SCA heavy, former FRP gamer (before computer games), Lord of Rings fan...etc etc).
Lucy Lawless?
Sounds like some 3rd rate porn star.
UGGGGHHHHH! Guilty!!!
Absolutely! Callisto was by far the hottest babe ever on Xena. I saw her later on an episode of 7th Heaven as a teacher and she was even more sexy then.
Psycho chicks are the best!
