New video clip - Charlotte Riley in The Take

Up-and-coming actress Charlotte Riley was nude in episode 2 of Sky One's geezers and gangsters drama The Take. Aside from a major supporting role in the movie Easy Virtue Charlotte hasn't too many credits to her name as yet, but is coming to the screens as Cathy in the latest version of Wuthering Heights later this year. Her Heathcliff is played by Tom Hardy (currently TV's favourite overacting villain) who also appears in The Take.

Both Charlotte and co-star Kierston Wareing had sex scenes in episode one and several scenes take place in a strip club, but the sex scenes were those odd clothed-TV-sex sex scenes and the strip club appeared to be the sort of joint that only exists on TV and would surely go out of business in the real world due to a singular lack of actual undressing on the part of the dancers. So when does the nudity come? In a rather nasty violent scene of the kind they add an extra warning for at the end of the ad break mid-programme. Talk about skewed priorities!

Still, nudity is all to rare on UK TV at the moment so I have capped away...

This sounds interesting (includes Rebecca Night!) but this

Could be even better. Maybe Gemma Arterton will make a career out of playing literary heroines. Although I always get muddled up between Cathy and Catherine in the Wuthering Heights story. You're sort of meant to, I guess.

I think i saw a nipple slip from Kierston Wareing during her first sex scene in episode 1, any thoughts?

Hmm, more of a Charlotte Brontë fan, myself ;)

Both might offer a certain amount of Victorian eye-candy, but I'm doubtful this will include any script additions to include actual nudity!!

@ Justin
I was considering capping the Kierston Wareing scene as a non-nude clip, but didn't spot any nipplage on my initial viewing. I will re-visit it and see if there was a momentary flash.

I was watching in HD, and up untill the 23rd it was available still on "anytime", whether the incident in question is vissable in standard definition i am unsure

@ Justin

Well, I've capped the scene and I guess in HD there would have been something worth seeing.

An HD upgrade for myself may be on the cards but I'll have to upgrade my PC as well if I'm to have any chance of making clips. (I've done a little research recently and it's not clear how easy it is to do this from a Sky HD box!)
