Controversial X-rated Netflix shows that make racy Bridgerton look PG – including stars who ‘romped for REAL on-screen’
One particularly controversial scene involved a romp at a funeral
BRIDGERTON is back and there's more sex than ever - with lesbian romps, threesomes and more steam than a sauna.
Nicola Coughlan, the Irish beauty who plays Penelope Featherington in the sexy period drama, has revealed she loved filming all her raunchy scenes with Colin Bridgerton, played by Luke Newton.

The pair have been getting closer and closer over the last few seasons of the wildly popular show, and this season will see them finally getting as close as possible with outdoor sex and even a tumble in a horse drawn carriage.
Nicola said the sex scenes were her favourite to film.
"Luke and I had a real hand in what we did and how it came across. Thankfully we had that physical comfort with one another, so it ended up being a really beautiful thing," she explained.
She has also revealed she is "very naked" at one point in the show, something she described as "the biggest f*** you to all the conversations surrounding my body. It was amazingly empowering."

Bridgerton may have made headlines for its raunchy, sex-fuelled antics - but Netflix is known for not shying away from even more X-rated scenes.
Plenty of shows have divided audiences... here, we reveal the most controversial that have landed on the streaming service over the years.
Gandu
This erotic black-and-white indie film, which was made in 2010 and later appeared on Netflix, was initially banned from release in India because it is so explicit.
Gandu focuses on the life of a vulgar, rebellious teenage rapper on a drug-fuelled binge.

There’s a number of lurid sex scenes, and full frontal nudity, but the most controversial was a sex scene that director Qaushiq Mukherjee claims was un-simulated.
In other words, the actors were genuinely having sex with each other on camera.

Obsession

This four-part erotic drama released on Netflix last year follows William, whose adult son Jay brings his girlfriend, Anna, home to meet the parents.
William and Anna are immediately attracted to each other, and as the name suggests, William becomes obsessed with her.
He follows Anna and Jay to Paris, sneaks into their hotel room and searches the room for any hint of Anna.
When he smells her perfume on the bed he gets a little carried away and begins grinding on the pillow while performing a sex act.
The scene had people scratching their heads, with one viewer calling it “unhinged”.
Another joked: “This is why I always take the hotel cushions off the bed and put them far, far away.”

With a name like that, you get what you pay for.
This follows the story of iconic porn star Rocco Siffredi, played by Alessandro Borghi.
The real Rocco appeared in more than 1,300 pornographic films, while the Netflix series has more than 50 sex scenes over the seven episodes.
It was released on Netflix in March of this year.
One of the scenes that has riled people up was when Rocco attends his mum’s funeral.
He is devastated by the loss and one of his late mother’s friends approaches him to offer her condolences.
He becomes aroused, and the woman - who has known him for his whole life - drops to her knees and performs oral sex on him.

Two strangers wake up in bed together - and realise they have been stitched together at the abdomen.
They have no memory of how they got there, and during the first two acts of the film are desperately trying to figure it out.
However, in the third act they end up having sex - the logistics of this are not addressed.
They later discover they are long-lost conjoined twins who were separated at birth and have been kidnapped and stitched back together by their schizophrenic father.
Some reviews called it a “disgusting, perverted movie promoting sick and twisted incest” - and others just called it “stupid” and “a waste of time”.
365 Days

This film was one of Netflix’s number ones in 2020 despite its horrendous public reception.
The plot revolves around Sicilian mafia boss Massimo (Michele Morrone) and Polish woman Laura (Anna-Maria Sieklucka), who he kidnaps.
He gives her a year to fall in love with him before he sets her free. During the 365 days, they eventually do fall in love and have the kind of outrageous sex that made headlines for being "soft porn".
A petition on Change.org calling for the film to be removed from the streaming service gained almost 100,000 signatures, but instead two more were released to complete the trilogy.
A spokesperson for Netflix said the film had a high rating for violence sex and nudity - and also had already been released theatrically in several countries. Netflix had just licensed the film.
“We believe strongly in giving our members around the world more choice and control over their Netflix viewing experience,” the spokesperson said.
“Members can choose what they do and do not want to watch by setting maturity filters at a profile level and removing specific titles to protect from content they feel is too mature.”
Brand New Cherry Flavor
This sex scene nauseated due to its creepy body horror element.
The psychedelic, surreal show released on Netflix in 2021 follows Lisa, who asks a witch to put a curse on someone who has wronged her.

As a form of payment, Lisa must bizarrely vomit up kittens for Boro the witch.
But when she pleads with Boro to stop the puking, a feline forces its way out through her abdomen instead, leaving a gaping wound.
She begins to touch the hole in her stomach, clearly aroused by it amongst the pain.
Horrified by what has happened to her, Lisa seeks comfort in her new lover and they begin to kiss.
He then slides his entire hand and arm inside the gaping wound and they have sex.
