This (below) is on SKY1, which I don't get. Does anyone know if there is
another way of seeing it?

Sky1 has commissioned a new documentary series called Naked Britain.

The three-part show, fronted by psychologists Jack Lewis and Anjula Mutanda,
will dissect the UK's attitudes to nudity and find out if the country
deserves its prudish reputation.

"Naked Britain is a fun and insightful investigation into the nation's
changing views towards nudity," said Sky1's Emma Read. "Britain is famously
prudish, but this show will challenge that notion and will uncover a whole
host of loud and proud nudists."

Lewis added: "I want to test my own attitudes to nudity. I thought it'd be
interesting to throw myself in the deep end and see what my prejudices are
in certain scenarios.

"Nudity is such a complex subject. When you're a kid, you have no
inhibitions, but then puberty happens and the shyness kicks in. Britain also
makes an unwavering connection between nudity and sex.

"Scandinavian countries are more open-minded, and are able to separate
non-sexual nudity from the sexual. The British can't, it's the Victorian
hangover."

The first instalment is scheduled to air Monday, November 2 at 9pm on Sky1.
Episode two will air straight after at 9.30pm, with the final part arriving
the following week.

did anyone else watch Mondays episodes? I V+ it and just watched it.
not very thought provokimg on the naturist side of Naked Britain this week,
but does show others view an naked body! though show gives the impression
that nudity is more accepted these days?
nice to see Spencer Tunick and unsderstand all the posts on here about his
projects.

did wonder if Anthony Gormley or anyone else asked the met or collated
figures on differing approaches by different officers on nudity on the
fourth plinth?

got the series ready to tape/record

I, for one, have no intentions of subsribing to Sky.

To do so, I would be contributing to Rupert Merdoch's expanding empire.
