James Martin has revealed that he recently received a saucy calendar in his fan mail.

The Strictly Come Dancing star said he was "amused" to find that fans had posed nude for his benefit.

He told Teletext: "A bunch of girls sent it. They were naked except for strategically-placed chocolate eclairs and profiteroles."

However, he confessed that he had not replied to the mail, saying: "I'm a chef, not a Hollywood actor."

Martin's new show James Martin's Brittany begins on UKTV Food this week.
