KIM CATTRALL, Samantha out of Sex and the City 2, has put the block on any more nude sex scenes.

In the TV series from which the new film and its predecessor emerged, Cattrall was famous for getting her kit off with a succession of men, but age has apparently put paid to any more fleshy adventures, on-screen at least.

“When I turned 50, I decided that I didn’t want to be photographed nude anymore,” Cattrall, now 53, told Heart FM.

That doesn’t mean her alter-ego is shy of putting out. In SATC2, Samantha tries to have sex on the beach in Abu Dhabi – naughty! – but film fans won’t get a proper eyeful.

“You see me doing a physical, a sexual act, but there is no part of my body that is exposed,” said Cattrall.

Cattrall and her co-stars drew huge crowds at Leicester Square on Thursday night for the London premiere of Sex and the City 2, but the reviews have been almost universally dire.

“The gossamer thin plot is more flimsy than some of the characters’ dresses and at 146 minutes, the sequel overstays its welcome by the best part of an hour,” read LondonNet’s review and that was one of the kindest.

Nevertheless, as a treat, we trawled the world and came up with a good review, from the Philadelphia Inquirer:

“I loved Sex and the City 2, enjoying every single campy, over-the-top moment,” says Jenice M. Armstrong.

“It’s a crime that we have to wait possibly another two long years for the next installment (sic) to possibly come out.”

Sadly, we have an eternity to wait for Samatha to reveal herself again.
