Jorgie nervous about family reaction to nude scene
Jorgie Porter says she's nervous about her family watching raunchiest scene ever in the new series of Hollyoaks Later, which begins on E4 tonight. The 24-year-old actress gets up close and personal with co-star Andrew Still in the Channel 4 soap's late night spin-off, when her character Theresa McQueen is caught in bed with Joel. Jorgie told The Sun: "Jen (Metcalfe, who plays Mercedes] gave me great advice. She was the best person to ask, as her character Mercedes is extremely sexy. "She said, 'Don't worry about it, it will be over as quick as you know it and it's not real, no one's judging you - just make it look good!'" The Hollyoaks beauty admitted she is nervous about her family watching the episode. She said: "I told my mum what I was going to be doing and she said, 'You do what you think is necessary, but at the end of the day don't get your nipples out!' I've seen the pictures from the really rude bits and they're quite shocking. "I think my grandma might need a cup of coffee at that point. We might have to take her out of the room, get her a cup and bring her back when it's finished!"
