Naked Attraction WILL return for a second series on Channel 4 despite dozens of complaints about its nudity
The controversial dating show is looking for new singletons
From DAN WOOTTON'S BIZARRE TV COLUMN
PREPARE for more boobs, bums and dangly bits on Channel 4 – as explicit dating show Naked Attraction is set to return for a second series.
The programme, fronted by Anna Richardson, stunned telly viewers as it saw contestants go stark naked in a bid to find love during its opening series earlier this year.

And now even more singletons will be flashing their bits on the box as I can reveal show bosses are on the hunt for willing new participants for a second run of the outrageous series.
A source revealed: “The first series of Naked Attraction proved that the nation has a fascination with full frontal nudity and seeing suitors being picked by their privates.
“It drew in fantastic viewing figures and stirred up quite a reaction on social media.

“There has therefore been little debate among bosses as to whether it should be recommissioned – and they have decided that they want a second series to air in the New Year.”
The first show shocked as it featured an average of five penises and two vaginas every minute.
Producers are already on the look-out for new singletons who don’t mind ditching their kit in the hopes they might find ‘the one’.

A source added: “Studio Lambert who make the show were surprised during the first series by just how many members of the public were confident enough to sign up to strip off on TV.
“They’re hoping they’ll will have just a big an intake in the seconds series and have already put out ads online asking for willing individuals to star on the show.”
Online adverts reveal that they are on a quest to find more singletons who are “ready to take radical action to find their perfect partner”.

Jeremy said that unlike Amazon, which loves his new series Grand Tour, BBC execs never praised his Top Gear show, even when it earned them more than £50million a year in overseas sales.
Steven who created Sherlock with MARK GATISS, told the Oxford Union debating society he hopes the BBC remains a public service broadcaster.

But he added: “That doesn’t mean the BBC isn’t infuriating to deal with, it absolutely is.
As Mark always says, ‘You love the BBC, you do not expect the BBC to love you back’.”
Tcheky: I almost missed it
TCHEKY KARYO nearly gave The Missing a miss.
The French actor initially turned down the lead role of troubled investigator Julien Baptiste in the hit drama.
In the BBC1 show Julien helps search for children who have seemingly vanished into thin air.
Tcheky revealed: “I almost didn’t do it.”

Mimicking being dragged by the collar, he added: “It was like I was taken like that.”
Now part-way through the second series, and despite the emotionally draining storylines, Tcheky isn’t keen to go anywhere.
He said: “I hope there are skeletons in the closet for more. Series seven?”
I think they should settle for a third series first.
