Amanda Holden was joined by two underwear-clad naturists from the UK's only nudist village on This Morning today (December 1).

"Goodness me," Holden began, before introducing the pair as widower George Tait and his neighbour Heather Jones, residents from the special community outside St Albans called Spielplatz.



"First of all you've been very brave, and we've been very kind to you by switching off the air-conditioning," she joked.

"I do appreciate that, as I really do feel the cold in the winter," quipped Tait, donning only a pair of nude briefs.

The residents were on the show to promote the upcoming More4 documentary on their village - which became a nudist community back in 1929.



The TV presenter and breakfast show co-host asked the pair whether there was ever any embarrassment when they go naked.

"Not at all," Tait replied.

"I think when you remove your clothes it strips away a small but important layer of pretension and artifice and that's the start of becoming true to yourself and appreciating your humanity."

He went on to tell Holden that he was first inspired to go strip off completely after spotting a naked sunbather on a beach in his 20s, which he thought looked "liberating".



When asked where one carries their wallet or phone in a nudist community, Jones - in just a nude bra and pair of knickers - replied: "The best thing is to carry a small bag but the ladies tend to wear sarongs."

Jones - who along with Tait was sitting on a towel for personal hygiene reasons - also revealed that she does wear clothes while working as a cook and cleaner, and that not all of the village inhabitants are nude all the time.

"But if the sun comes out, the clothes come off. Why let clothes be inhibiting?" she questioned.

The documentary on the Spielplatz nudist community The Naked Village airs on More4 on Thursday, December 11 at 9pm.
