Gillian Taylforth refuses to strip

Gillian Taylforth has revealed that she refuses to strip off for sex scenes.

The former EastEnders actress spoke about scenes filmed for her role as a randy bus driver in new ITV1 drama Big Bad Bus Ride.

"They aren't too explicit - I don't think people will want to see my body at my age! There's nothing on display," she told The Sun. "There's no flesh on show - just uniforms round our ankles. I was relieved, as I didn’t want to show my body - not that anyone would want to see it anyway.

"I was really worried as I thought people might think that’s how I have sex in real life. But the scenes were all choreographed and the guys I did the scenes with - Noel Clarke who plays Mickey in Doctor Who and Nitin Ganatra - were great. They told me not to worry and just have a laugh."
