Anna Richardson, the host of Naked Attraction, has spoken over the years about some of the wildest contestants to appear on the already pretty wild show.
For those living under a rock Naked Attraction is a dating show in which one contestant is shown a group of people for them to take on a date.
The catch of course is that they are all naked from head to toe and a sliding screen slowly reveals more of their body from the bottom upwards.
Whilst it hasn’t been on Channel 4 for almost two years now many UK TV fans still have a real fascination with the show, which was full of iconic moments.

Anna Richardson appeared on the QVCUK podcast last year where she discussed some of these moments, including a virgin who appeared on the show and had to be taken out the studio when the nude reveal happened.
Called ‘Brian the Virgin’ by Anna, she said: “I think he’s popped his cherry now but Brian the Virgin came on and was very proudly a virgin.
“He was looking forward to dating so he could, you know, end up not being a virgin and he was faced with six vulvas in the first round… at which point he nearly fainted.
“We had to stop, stop record, we had to take him off set… gave him some sugar, a stiff drink, a cup of tea.”
When asked whether he knew what he was in for with the show, Anna replied that she ‘thinks he knew what was going on’ but was ‘just overwhelmed’.
She explained that everyone who went on the show is fully aware of what they are signing up for and are made to do a psychological evaluation and anyone who is going to get naked on the show has to do so in the audition.
She added however: “Brian was totally passed on all of that, he knew what he was getting involved in, but faced with six f*nnies basically he had to have a sit down.”
Brian spoke about the experience on the show back in 2023, appearing on the ‘Curious Cast’ podcast.
He said: “I had purposely avoided seeing female genitalia and that was due to a personal experience that I had, that made someone feel very uncomfortable.
"I was of the opinion that women's private parts should be respected - I know how that feels when that isn't. I know how the woman feels when their privacy isn't respected."
He went on to add regarding the experience: "Any opportunity to see a woman naked in the flesh I had avoided, so that's partly the reason why I needed just a break to take everything in.
“I just needed to take everything in along with the fact that it was my first time seeing female genitalia in the flesh.
"So it was a combination of all of those with the reason why I needed it. I had no point of reference, and I think that's very true.
“Not only had I avoided seeing female genitalia but I had six of them. So I had no point of reference."
Whilst the last public interview with him countered Anna’s claim he had lost his virginity, he did speak about how Naked Attraction gave him a lot of confidence, so all roads lead to a happy ending it seems.
