Naked Attraction is a British dating game show in which a clothed person selects two contestants from six naked people, whose bodies and then faces are revealed in stages from the feet up.[1][2] The person deciding then appears nude to select one of them for a fully clothed date. The programme then presents their feedback after the date. It premiered on Channel 4 on 25 July 2016 and is presented by Anna Richardson.[3]
In November 2016, Naked Attraction was renewed for a second series,[4] which began airing on 29 June 2017.
Production
Each episode can take up to 12 hours to film, although the contestant choosing a date only has to disrobe for 15 minutes. The resultant date takes place at 9am the next day. The picker has to have someone with him/her at all times to make sure they don’t accidentally bump into one of the contestants, and if one of the contestants needs a bathroom break, they must be escorted by a member of staff out so the picker doesn’t see them leave their coloured booth.[5]

A fast forwarded verbal battle ensued ending with neither even looking at the other and Cathy just repeatedly shouting "stupid" at her date. In the second part Adam, a 24 year old technophobe who is nicknamed Jesus because of his appearance chose 22 year old Kimberly. Again the first date went very well but again, after 5 weeks when they met both complained they had no texts or contact from the other. Kimberly was especially upset as she felt she had been made a fool of and Adam admitted he might have something to learn about human relations and even technology. | ||||
