Another new but vintage video clip - Orla Brady in The Heart Surgeon

Long before she played an adulteress in the recent (and very disappointing in terms of nudity) Mistresses, Irish actress Orla Brady was playing an adulteress in the rather melodramatic 1997 drama, The Heart Surgeon.

Orla - now an improbable 48 years of age - has found TV success in both Europe and America so I'm hoping her hard-to-find nude scenes from this drama will be of interest to a wide audience. I'm posting the first clip today but there is a further clip that I haven't edited properly yet, but which I hope to get up in the near future.

The clip is capped from VHS and it's not as good a source as that from last week's Caroline Catz clip, especially as the scene is rather dark despite my best efforts with the gamma settings. Nonetheless, if you're a fan of Orla's then this and the upcoming clip are worth a look.

New (if vintage) video clip - Caroline Catz in Look Me In The Eye

Despairing of the current state of British screen skin, I've turned back to the 90s to see if there are any lost gems lurking away on VHS.

The first success of my foray through the tapes is this nude scene from Caroline Catz, for some time a regular in ITV dramas such as Doc Martin, The Vice, and Murder in Suburbia. Back in 1994 she made a little seen TV film called Look Me In The Eye. Artily shot, languorous and not a little pretentious to my mind, the Beeb clearly didn't quite know what to do with it as they stuck it out one evening without publicity and, as far as I know, never screened it again.

The nudity is all either in extreme close-up or in long shot, which makes for a slightly frustrating viewing, but the quality is good for a VHS rip, if I do say so myself, with detailed close-up views though the image is just a little soft. To the best of my knowledge this scene is not readily available elsewhere on the net and I'm not aware of any other nude scenes from Caroline, so enjoy!

New non-nude video - Elaine Cassidy in Harper's Island

One of this blog's favourite Irish actresses, Elaine Cassidy, recently showed up somewhat unexpectedly as leading lady in glossy US slasher-thriller series Harper's Island which recently finished its run on BBC3. Before the slaughter started in earnest, the producers managed to slip in a couple of enjoyably gratuitous underwear/bikini scenes for Elaine, which I have capped here.

New video clip - Maxine Peake in Criminal Justice

Last week's BBC drama event, the second series of Criminal Justice, missed a trick or two in terms of its potential for WIP-style scenes, but the opening episode did feature leading lady Maxine Peake in a longish shower scene with a little nudity. However, if anyone with HD viewing facilities would like to report back on what may or may not be visible at around the 54 second mark in this SD video - image 9 in the preview - then I would be interested...

New video clip - Tamzin Merchant in The Tudors

I've not really been capping the numerous nude scenes from The Tudors as by the time it plays on UK TV, it's already been screened in North America and widely capped. However, I did like the scenes from 22-year-old Tamzin Merchant as a nymphettish Katharine Howard and I thought why not...

New video clip - Kirsty Bushell in Coming Up: Pornography

A brief clip from last week's late night C4 series of new short films Coming Up. Kirsty Bushell's nude scene doesn't perhaps live up to the film's title - Pornography - but is still a pleasant diversion all the same.

(By the way, I haven't forgotten about the Rebecca Davies clip, but my video software's processing speed is derived from a mathematical formula involving cup size, so it may be some days still before this vid is available...)

New video clip - More of Amy Manson in Desperate Romantics

Not quite sure how I will spend my Tuesday nights now Desperate Romantics has come to a close. The series had undoubtedly the best nudity in an in-house BBC production in ages and episode six saw Lizzie Siddall as played by Amy Manson shuffle off this mortal coil, but not before one last nude scene. I'm posting a compilation of Amy from episodes 5 & 6 and I haven't forgotten about Rebecca Davies' flesh festival from episode 5 which I will upload in the next few days.

New video clip - More of Jennie Jacques in Desperate Romantics

As promised, here's the rest of Jennie Jacques' nude scenes from episode 4 of Desperate Romantics. I am only 1 week behind with the skin from this series now!

New video clip - Jennie Jacques in Desperate Romantics

Carry on Pre-Raphaelites... er... I mean Desperate Romantics continues to deliver the goods with multiple nude scenes from Jennie Jacques in episode 4 to add to her brief topless moment in episode 1. Someone even turned the lights on for some of these scenes.

Desperate Romantics seems virtually to be Ms Jacques first TV role (only the free appearance in The Bill they give away with every Equity card before now) and I hope to see more. In fact, there was so much skin from Jenny in this episode that I've only capped half of it so far (plus the nudity from ep. 1). Hope to have the rest up soonish...

New non-nude video clip - Karen Gillan in The Kevin Bishop Show

Doctor Who fans may have been trying to remember where they've previously seen Karen Gillan who is to play new companion Amy Pond. The biggest TV role to date for the 21 year old former model was in the first series of C4's Kevin Bishop Show where her regular appearances included a few moments of undies and swimwear (Youtube is your friend for these!). The second series in which she returns seems to have upped the ante on this with several bikini moments in episode 2. Here's the clip...

By the way, I intend to make no attempt to explain George & Lynne to blog-visitors from overseas! And anyway, someone else has taken this task upon themselves.
