Russell Brand has photographed himself taking a bath with Dame Helen Mirren on the set of their new movie.

The 35-year-old comedian, who has regularly professed his love for the Oscar-winning actress, posted a picture on Twitter of Mirren scrubbing him down as he took a soapy soak during a break from filming the remake of 1981 comedy Arthur.

Referring to an anecdote from his stand-up where he longs for a sensual rubdown with "Mummy Helen", Brand wrote: "At last. A bath from Helen Mirren. Never has getting clean been more dirty."

The last time the pair worked on a film together resulted in an embarrassing incident where Brand accidentally presented Mirren with his dirty underwear.
