Emily Atack reveals Rivals nude scene secrets as she vows to go on playing sexy women ‘for as long as they'll have me'
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A DOOMED love affair, naked tennis and plenty of sex are just some of the things that Emily Atack's character Sarah Stratton gets up to in telly bonkbuster Rivals. And the actress reckons she is the ideal person to play the blonde bombshell — as she is practically the same person. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Emily Atack reckons she is practically the same person as her Rivals character 6 The naked tennis match featuring Emily's character Sarah Stratton is a key scene in Jilly Cooper's original novel Credit: Planet Photos 6 Emily says she 'wasn't afraid to identify' with her Rivals character Credit: Instagram @emilyatack Emily, 35, is seen in the Disney+ eight-parter having her heart broken by sexy Lothario Rupert Campbell-Black, which she says she can definitely relate to. She revealed: 'I wasn't afraid to identify with her and I completely, I AM her. 'I'm a very flawed woman. 'I've made terrible decisions in my love life. 'I used all of that — it was completely genuine — and yes, I used the vulnerability, all of it. 'Finally, women are being written about in a certain way. 'These demonised women, they're not being celebrated but they are being understood better. 'Women like Sarah Stratton have never been written with nuance. 'They're always certain types of women — the demonised types of women, you know, the home wreckers and everything. 'Big furry knickers' 'I think people have been quite scared to admit that they identify with characters like Sarah.' Emily Atack says stripping for Rivals and playing naked tennis 'was liberating' In Rivals, Sarah is a wannabe TV host who is married to Deputy Prime Minister Paul Stratton, played by Rufus Jones, and is unquestionably one of the most glamorous characters on the show — which Emily loved. The actress, who shot to fame playing Charlotte 'Big Jugs' Hinchcliffe on Channel 4 sitcom The Inbetweeners, says: 'There are roles that come along and the term 'typecast' is always seen as this negative thing. 'I've been typecast my whole life and I loved every single minute of it. 'I will carry on playing these sexy women for as long as they will have me.' Having been romantically linked to a string of celebrities, ranging from Harry Styles to Jack Grealish, Emily is now in engaged to scientist Dr Alistair Garner, with whom she shares 16-month-old son Barney. Her stint on The Inbetweeners from 2008 to 2010 led to a long line of other work ranging from stand-up comedy to acting. Rivals, which has been a hit around the globe since it came out last year, is arguably her biggest gig to date — and it's one which, arguably, she was destined to play. I just made it my part before they could even make a decision. This particular one I was like, yeah they'd be stupid not to (hire me.) Emily Atack Talking at the Edinburgh TV Festival, Emily revealed how producers specifically had her in mind for the role, which she embraced. She said: 'The breakdown for the characters said, 'Think Emily Atack', so they went, 'Well, let's just get Emily, then.' 'I still had to audition. 'I went in with all the get-up on and they thought I'd dressed up. 'I was actually just going to a bar afterwards. 'They were like, 'Thank you so much for dressing as the role,' I was like, 'No worries.'' 6 Emily is now in engaged to scientist Dr Alistair Garner Credit: Instagram 6 Emily is seen in the Disney+ eight-parter having her heart broken by sexy Lothario Rupert Campbell-Black Credit: Instagram She added sarcastically: 'I had to dig REAL deep for my character. 'As soon as you read something like that it naturally flows out of you. 'You naturally feel at home with it. 'That's how I felt with Sarah Stratton. 'I just made it my part before they could even make a decision. 'This particular one I was like, yeah they'd be stupid not to (hire me.)'' Now Emily is reprising her role as Sarah, opposite Alex Hassell as Tory MP Rupert, in the second series of Rivals which is halfway through filming and is expected to drop late next year. 'Stick-on muff' She can't emphasise enough how well the cast get on, which is partly down to their 'no d***s on set' policy — meaning no bad behaviour. That rule was also essential when she and Alex had to film their naked tennis match in the grounds of Rupert's grand stately house, which is a key scene in Jilly Cooper's original novel. It has become synonymous with the show, and earlier this year it was even nominated as one of Bafta's TV Moments Of The Year. Well-endowed Rupert was supposed to have a member that he could 'bat bread rolls' with, and the creative team did consider giving him an oversized prosthetic to wear. But while they opted for the actor to go with the 'model's own' option, Emily had something more than a tennis racket and balls to cover herself up — and it was not just for reasons of modesty. She revealed: 'I had a stick-on muff. 6 Emily shot to fame playing Charlotte 'Big Jugs' Hinchcliffe on Channel 4 sitcom The Inbetweeners Credit: Handout 'I had to have a merkin, it's called, and I had all these fittings for them. 'They were going: 'Oh no, it's too blonde that one,' and it had to be a proper Eighties bush. 'But that actually helped because it actually just felt like I had these big furry knickers on, and I kept looking at the monitor going: 'Oh, do I look alright? Oh God!' 'And seeing yourself naked on camera like that is so weird and jarring but once I'd seen it I was like, oh, fine. 'I couldn't put my clothes back on. 'It was quite liberating. 'They were like, 'Emily, can you put your clothes back on now?'' But she was keen to point out that despite the sexual nature of the scenes and the nudity, she never felt uncomfortable because, like on other dramas, intimacy co-ordinators were on set. 'Safe environment' They were needed on Rivals as there were many sex scenes involving a lot of characters — which, of course, were all based on the sauciness in Jilly's books. Emily said: 'It's a very new profession, the intimacy co-ordinators. 'Everybody is still navigating it and working it out. 'But I'm really proud of Rivals and it is such a massive representation of how far we have come in the industry in terms of taking care of people's needs and emotions. 'It's such a safe environment, and I'm not just saying that because I'm on it.' Filming of series two started in May and will continue until February, with Jilly back, heavily involved in the production. The novelist has even invited all the cast to an enormous party — which means Emily will jet down from Edinburgh to the West Country immediately after her stint at the TV festival. Then she will go direct from partying to filming her next scenes in Rivals. Emily said: 'Yes, I'm going to Jilly Cooper's house tonight. 'My pick-up time is hideous tomorrow, though — they do that to me so I don't stay out too late!'

The Chase's Paul Sinha opens up on health scare 'worst week and a half of my life'
Paul Sinha, famed for appearing on The Chase, has opened up about experiencing the 'worst week' of his life after a devastating health scare The Chase star Paul Sinha has candidly opened up about a devastating health scare he suffered in a new interview on The One Show. The TV favourite, known for appearing on the ITV quiz show as The Sinnerman, appeared on the BBC One show on Wednesday (20 August) as part of a segment focusing on this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival. In a pre-recorded clip, Paul spoke about performing at the festival, as well as his decision to pursue stand-up comedy as a career and his health, having been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2019. He opened up about attending Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2023, recalling how he suffered two heart attacks during his time at the event. "The last time I came to Edinburgh Festival was 2023, I had a show that I really enjoyed but my time here was slowly spoilt by the fact that the first week, I had a small heart attack, and in the third week, I had a small heart attack. That's not the Edinburgh that you want," Paul said. The stand-up comedian continued to work throughout the festival, but he was eventually admitted to hospital later in 2023 and had to undergo an operation. "I had a coronary artery bypass operation, which I can honestly say was the worst week and a half of my life," Paul sadly admitted. He added: "Everything has been a sort of comeback since then. Steady, unspectacular comeback, no great drama." Paul's beloved husband Oliver, who he married in 2019, made an appearance in the clip, revealing how he is always on hand to help Paul with his stand-up shows and ensuring he takes his medications to control his Parkinson's symptoms. Looking to the future, Paul told the camera: "Life's short, and I think it's very important to get the balance right between doing the right thing for your health and not getting rid of the stuff in life that brings you joy. It's a difficult process and it's a difficult balancing act." Paul is famed for being one of the six Chasers on ITV's The Chase, having starred on the show since 2011. He appears alongside Shaun Wallace, Darragh Ennis, Anne Hegerty, Jenny Ryan and Mark Labbett. He's also appeared on numerous other TV quiz shows and previously fronted his own ITV programme, Paul Sinha's TV Showdown.

John Crawley dead: TikTok star dies at 47 after being placed on ventilator
TikTok creator John Crawley, widely recognized online as KingBeardX and Pimpmunkx, has died at 47 after suffering a cardiac arrest, TMZ has reported. Crawley passed away Monday in hospital after spending over two weeks under medical care, according to James Steele of Glenfield Funeral Home in New Albany, Mississippi. His longtime friend and former podcast cohost Anthony Caruso launched a GoFundMe during Crawley's hospitalization, revealing the content creator had been admitted to North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo with breathing difficulties. It comes after Jessie J made a heartbreaking confession about the darkest moment of her cancer diagnosis. He was later placed on a ventilator, transferred to the ICU, and had a chest tube inserted before his death. Crawley gained a massive following for his comedic reactions to food videos, amassing over 2.5 million followers on TikTok and nearly 1 million on Instagram. With no medical insurance and as his family's main source of income, a GoFundMe was launched by friends of John Crawley to cover funeral expenses and provide financial support for his loved ones. 'Knowing him personally, John was a good guy. He lit up a lot of people's worlds,' funeral director James Steele told TMZ. 'I just left his house and was with his mother, we prayed together. She's torn up right now but she's going to make it.' On August 4, a family member shared a health update on the fundraising page: 'He went to the hospital; he was having trouble breathing. Doctors put him on a ventilator… we went past 66% (O2 levels) and he stopped breathing. They (put him into the ICU and) brought it back up to 100% (O2 levels). He just had a tube placed in his chest… his breathing condition is still very bad.' Sadly, the page was later updated on Tuesday by Anthony Caruso with news of Crawley's death. 'I'm really sorry to tell everyone the bad news but Pimpmunkx (KingBeardx) passed away yesterday,' he wrote. 'Thank you to everyone that has supported the fundraiser so far. His mother says told me to thank you all.' He added: 'The fundraiser will continue to go on to support fundraising a funeral/helping John's mother.' Over $2,228 had been raised toward the $9,000 goal. Crawley's final TikTok post was shared on July 22, and since news of his passing broke, fans have been flooding social media with tributes. One devastated TikTok user wrote: "You made us laugh on our darkest days, thank you for sharing your light, KingBeardX." Another echoed: "Gone too soon, but your voice and humor will live on forever in our feeds." Someone else added: "Thank you for always keeping it real man. You made the internet feel like home."
