Barbara Windsor talks to Graham Norton about nudity
This week, Graham Norton talks nudity with EastEnders star and Carry On veteran, actress Barbara Windsor.
听
Appearing on on 大象传媒 Two's The Graham Norton Show, Barbara, whose only nude scene became an iconic film moment, reveals that she's always regretted turning down a repeat performance in real life:
听
"I was offered the very first edition of Penthouse, but I said no. I regret it because any pictures of me are silly sexy, I'm always a joke. The thing is, they offered me Penthouse but my husband at the time said I couldn't do it. It would have been nice to have had a really good, sexy picture of me.
听
"The only nude scene I ever did on film was an accident. You weren't allowed to show anything in those days."
听
The Albert Square matriarch also reveals that she's sharing her space with unwanted visitors both on and off-screen. The Queen Vic becomes infested in a storyline inspired by reality:
听
"Someone got nits in real life... it was Mo ... and we thought we'd use it as a storyline, it [the Queen Vic] needs redecorating ... and at home ... I had the mouse man at home. Scott was terrified ... a mouse was in the bedroom ... we couldn't sleep there, we had to sleep in the spare room with all the lights on!"
听
She also gives her views on royalty and the recent suggestion that class distinctions rocked Wills' and Kate's royal romance:
听
"I'm very patriotic, I know the Queen. I met her at the Royal Variety Performance a couple of years ago, then when she visited EastEnders she said 'you've got more clothes on today'. She came behind the bar at the Vic and I was scared because it was a bit dirty, but she made it very easy for me ... I don't understand about Miss Middleton, she sounds lovely and normal."
听
And she's looking forward to new Mitchell women arriving in Albert Square: "I'm really pleased because the family's a bit depleted, it'll be nice to have two feisty ladies."
听
Comedian and actor Robert Webb (Peep Show) completes this week's line-up.
