At this point, Naked Attraction has a reputation which precedes it.
But if you’re unfamiliar with this one-of-a-kind TV dating game series that's coming back for its 10th season, the first thing you should know is that it isn’t exactly a subtle show, reports The Manc.
Ever considered getting your kit off on national television?
If you were brave enough to answer 'yes' to that, then there's a brand new series of the hit Channel 4 show Naked Attraction set to hit screens later this year and producers are looking for singles to bare all in the name of love.
"Do you fancy testing the power of Naked Attraction?" the show asks.
"In this daring dating series, potential couples are able to see each other in their naked glory from the very off, and producers Studio Lambert are looking for adventurous singletons to take part in a new series - are you up for... naked dating?"
That's because it's a programme where a fully-clothed person faces six naked people - who are initially hidden in booths - and watches as parts of their bodies and faces are gradually revealed through successive rounds, from the feet up.
The picker will whittle down a group of six potential suitors, based solely on the power of naked attraction, and eliminate a person in each round based on what they find least likeable.
At the end, they must pick the naked body they like best to go on a "fully-clothed" date with.

Studio Lambert North and Channel 4 are currently casting for the new series, with the show's producers adding: "We’re looking for brave singletons to bare all in a quest to find love.
"There is no limit on gender, sexuality, or body type, and we pride ourselves on being an inclusive show [so] as long as applicants are over 18 years old and are single, we’d love to hear from them."
Fancy stripping down in the name of love, then? You can apply for the next series of Naked Attraction here.

Adventurous people from Yorkshire needed to take part in next series of BBC’s Race Across the World
Are you a fan of travelling? Got a bit of a competitive streak in your nature? Well, this might just be your calling then.
The BBC is, once again, casting for the next series of Race Across the World.
The BAFTA-winning hit show draws in thousands of viewers each week, and now producers are on the look-out for ‘intrepid duos’ of all ages who reckon they’re ready to take a step into the unknown, and embark on an epic race across land and sea for the next seried – and that includes Yorkshire residents.
With applications for the next series of the massively-popular show now open, nomadic people from Yorkshire are being encouraged to take part.
On a limited budget and away from the luxuries of modern technology and conveniences, those lucky applicants selected to take part in the next series will get the chance to experience life in some of the world’s most beautiful and remote locations.

Navigating their way across thousands of miles, they’ll travel through spectacular scenery and dynamic cities, visit ancient wonders, learn local customs, and take part in time-honoured traditions.
But, as producers are keen to point out, ‘the physical journey is only half of the story’. That’s because, as the contestants take on the challenge of travelling across the world, the greatest thing they’ll discover along the way could actually be about themselves and one another.
Putting out a UK-wide casting call on the BBC website this week, producers Studio Lambert wrote: “We are now accepting applications for the next series of Race Across the World. This experience is open to all, whether you’re a seasoned traveller or total novice.
“We want to hear what undertaking a trip like this would mean to you, and with a cash prize at stake, what lengths you would go to to win.”
Fancy it then? Applications for the next series of Race Across the World are now open for anyone over 18 years of age, with a deadline date of 29 March 2026, and you can find out more information and apply via the BBC website.
You may have heard of the funny Star Wars stripper show or even seen clips of it online, but rumour has it that nothing can quite prepare you for the cheekiness of seeing this romp in the flesh.
In case you’ve been completely immersed in the dark side until now, here’s what you can expect:
Now well over a decade into its success and more than 200 Las Vegas shows, ‘The Empire Strips Back’ made its long-awaited transatlantic debut earlier this year.
Getting away at London’s Riverside Studios from May and enjoying a run until this past August, the comedy-driven twist on the classic Star Wars stories and beloved sci-fi characters was an instant hit with us Brits.
It started in Australia way back in 2011 and has gone not only to tour across Europe, but land a coveted residency at the Rio Hotel and Casino in Nevada.
Now set to seek out new padawans and storm-strippers all over the cosmos, and by that we mean the UK, ‘The Empire Strips Back: Burlesque Parody’ is coming to Manchester.
Set to land at TESTBED in February from from Thursday 12 to Sunday 22 specifically, we cannot wait to see how this goes down with Northern crowds.
It’s also worth noting that this two-hour show, including intermission, is a strictly 18+ only event; if you’re interested, you can find out more info and grab your tickets right HERE.
