Emilia Fox says she is happy to do nude scenes, because her mum says it’s OK and the film crew are usually more embarrassed than she is.

The 37-year-old actress told The Sun: “It sounds awful as if I am a kind of loose actress, but I don’t mind doing naked sex scenes if it’s right for the story.

“If I took my clothes off for no reason and bared my body, people would go, ‘Oh, God, can we get out of the cinema now?’ So each time I’ve done it it’s been for a reason.

“I don’t feel shy in front of a film crew. They are more embarrassed than you are.

“I never have to think what would my mum say. I already know she has an open mind on such things and trusts me to make the right decision.”

Silent Witness star Emilia – who is divorced from Jared Harris and has a 17-month-old daughter from a previous relationship with film-maker Jeremy Gilley – hasn’t ruled out getting married again.

She explained: “My own take was always that if I met someone who loved me and wanted to marry me – and I loved them – then of course I would get married.”
