Coronation Street walks out in disgust at Naked Attraction on Celebrity Gogglebox

Maureen Lipman walked out in disgust and refused to watch an episode of Naked Attraction on Celebrity Gogglebox.

The Coronation Street favourite told how she returned with a bag over her head to spare her blushes from the unorthodox Channel 4 show.

Actress Maureen, 74, who plays Evelyn Plummer in the ITV soap, said: “Without question, the worst thing we watch is Naked Attraction.

“It’s a long time since I’ve seen five uncircumcised penises all in a row. And I hope it’s a long time before I see them again. When the willies came on, I walked out of the room.

“I said, ‘I have one life and I do not intend to spend another moment here watching this’. So I got a carrier bag and put it on my head and came back in. I had a glass of wine inside the carrier bag.

“I thought it was pretty funny, but obviously the powers that be didn’t and it was never shown.”

Maureen’s Celebrity Gogglebox companion Gyles Brandreth didn’t share her discomfort. He said: “I find it rather gripping. It allows me to watch programmes I wouldn’t dare watch with my wife.”
