Poor Harry Redknapp wanted no part of his local nudist beach tonight when he was invited to go and chat with some naturists.
We never painted Harry for a pearl-clutcher but it seemed he was more than happy to hang back with wife Sandra than get anywhere near a bunch of naked pensioners letting it all hang out on the sand.
On tonight’s episode of Harry’s show Sandbanks Summer, where the former footballer basically shows us all how brilliant it is to be mega-rich and live on the Dorset coast, he hosted John Barnes and Chris Kamara.
Between the speed boat races and the fish and chips, they also took in a spot of nudist beach watching.
Which all sounds very suss when you read it like that.
However, as Harry explained, his neighbourhood hosts the National Trust’s only designated nudist beach.
‘It is very strange, John, I must be honest,’ Harry said, as they spotted the beach very far in the distance.
However, cheeky John wanted to go over there and get a closer look at the action with the binoculars not doing enough.
Asking Harry whether he wanted to join, the I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here! winner quickly and rather emphatically replied: ‘No! No thank you, John.’
He added: ‘You will not get me over there [for] all the money in the world. I’m definitely not going over there.’
Wishing John ‘good luck’, Harry said: ‘You might need those binoculars John, it’s a bit cold today.’
Unfortunately despite his best efforts, the former footballer couldn’t see a thing though, so he went closer to the beach ‘looking for some naked people’.
Mike and Shan climbed aboard to chat with John in the buff, with Mike explaining: ‘It’s such a relaxing way of life.’
When John suggested being a naturist was associated with sex, Mike said: ‘It’s the furthest thing from it.’
While Shan explained: ‘It’s really comfortable…they discover the side benefits, it’s really relaxing, it’s great stress relief.’
According to Harry’s voiceover, recorded from the safety of a sound booth, no doubt, there are 1.2 million naturists in Britain, and ‘it seems getting your kit off has never been more popular’.
But Harry was staying put on the deck with wife Sandra.
In tonight’s episode of the ITV series, former Leeds United player Chris and Liverpool’s John teamed up with Harry for a tour of his swanky neighbourhood, known as the most exclusive and expensive seaside resort.
Yes, Harry, way to rub it in.
Sandbanks Summer returns Wednesday, 8pm on ITV.
