Coronation Street star Helen Lederer recalled the moment she stripped off on ITV.
In 2018, Helen felt brave enough to take her kit off for a good cause as she joined other celebrities on the lineup such as Megan McKenna and Coleen Nolan. Helen claimed it was “a lot” and not her favourite experience.
But she pulled up her socks and managed to go all the way through to the final performance. However, she cheekily “prayed the lights would go out at the right moment”.

Talking about whether she would strip off again for a TV show, Helen, 69, said: “I think people would pay me not to this time around. I think you have to kind of think ‘enough is enough’.
“But who knows? I mean, TV shows like Naked Attraction, I just don’t know how people do that. I always say that people always look so much better with their clothes on.”
The Absolutely Fabulous and Coronation Street actress will soon be turning 70 and to commemorate her milestone she has just released a memoir. The book is titled ‘Not That I’m Bitter’.
Talking about her new book, Helen said: “I decided to write the book just to remind myself that I’ve done. I think sometimes you get to this stage in life and you go, did I do those things? And it’s a sort of snakes and ladders type map, which you also feel, you know, the ups and downs.
“So I thought, right, I’m just going to put it all down. It’s kind of a ‘now or never’ type of moment really.”
Helen also gave fans an insight into her time in the Celebrity Big Brother house back in 2017. She said: “I go into what it was like to be in the Big Brother house. From the outside, apparently, I looked normal compared to others, which my daughter thought was hilarious.
“But sometimes there were three different arguments going on around me, with people yelling in the kitchen, other people yelling on the fake grass outside… I explained what it felt like to be emotionally in the midst of all those people and be in the pecking order. Yeah, I think maybe that would be the most surprising thing in the book.”
