Tim Allen denies Pamela Anderson's allegation he flashed her on first day on Home Improvement set

Hollywood actor Tim Allen has denied an allegation that he flashed Pamela Anderson on her first day on the set of US sitcom, Home Improvement.

Anderson, 55, has accused Allen of flashing his penis at her when she was 23 years old and first appeared in the role of Lisa on the hit show in 1991.

In her upcoming memoir Love, Pamela, Anderson alleges that the Home Improvement star made her uncomfortable when he flashed her as she made her way out of her dressing room.

An excerpt from the book that appears in industry publication Variety reads: "On the first day of filming, I walked out of my dressing room, and Tim was in the hallway in his robe. He opened his robe and flashed me quickly—completely naked underneath. He said it was only fair, because he had seen me naked."

Anderson adds that Allen then said "now we’re even!", presumably a reference to having seen Anderson nude in Playboy, before revealing that she "laughed uncomfortably" at the exchange.

Allen, who was 37 at the time of the alleged incident, has wholly denied the allegation.

"No, it never happened. I would never do such a thing," Allen said in a statement.

Anderson featured on Home Improvement for its first two seasons and her performance as the original 'tool time girl' marked one of her first major credits in television. The actress followed up her time on Home Improvement with a career-defining role as C. J. Parker on Baywatch.

Anderson's explosive claim is one of several made in the book, which hits shelves on January 31.

Love, Pamela also sees Anderson address last year's divisive show Pam and Tommy, which covered her marriage to Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee, including the leaking of a sex tape the pair filmed while they were together.
