Emily Atack reveals 'Inbetweeners' co-star got erection filming sex scene

Emily Atack has revealed one of her Inbetweeners co-stars got an erection while filming a sex scene.

The I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here star made the saucy confession while taking part in ITV2 show Shopping with Keith Lemon. Unsurprisingly, the cheeky host asked about the challenges of filming sex scenes with her co-stars.

Atack responded: "I don't mind doing scenes like that at all, you just get to lie in bed all day with a nice boy, it's great."

The 29-year-old played Charlotte on the hugely popular sitcom, which ran for three series followed by two movies. Her character was a love interest of lead character Will McKenzie, played by Simon Bird.

Atack continued: "Well do you know what they say, the men, when you're about to do a sex scene, they go, 'look, I'm sorry if it happens and I'm sorry if it doesn't' because they also don't want you to be offended if it doesn't happen, because I would be f**king livid!"

Lemon then asked if one of the four Inbetweeners got an erection during filming. Atack confirmed one did, though she declined to name any names.

The four main stars of the show are the aforementioned Bird, as well as Joe Thomas, Blake Harrison and James Buckley. Fans of the show will be quick to point out Bird was the only cast member Atack filmed a sex scene with, leaving little debate on who she could be referring to.

Atack won a new legion of fans with her quirky sense of humour after finishing runner up to Harry Redknapp in last year’s I’m a Celebrity.

It was recently announced she would star in a four-part documentary for UKTV channel W, called Adulting. Talking of the new project, the actress said: “It is an absolute joy to be asked to film this follow-doc. Adulting will cover some topics that I, as a young woman, constantly think and worry about so I hope others find it relatable, and funny!”

Adulting will screen on W at 10pm on 26 June.
