Danny Dyer Shares The Importance Of THAT Mr Bigstuff 2 Nude Scene
Ahead of Sky’s second season of Mr Bigstuff, star Danny Dyer has shared his insights into its opening nude scene (shared on the show’s trailer).
Speaking to The Sun, the actor, who plays Lee Campbell in the TV hit, said he had a surprising way of hiding his “Hampton.”
“Ever run through a council estate naked? It’s a whole new ball game, literally. I was concentrating on the weather, more than anything else, you know, that it wasn’t too cold!” he shared with the interviewer.
“It was broad daylight. I didn’t go fully [nude], I had a little sock over my Hampton,” the former EastEnders actor revealed.
But the move was not easy.
“You read this stuff, and you go, ‘OK, I’ve got to physically do it,’” Danny stated.
“But it’s important to the show, it’s a vital scene. You go, ‘He’s back.’ It’s the way of showing the alpha is back.”
No wonder both Danny and Mr Bigstuff co-star Ryan Samson recently told HuffPost UK how hard it was to contain their giggles on-set.
“It’s so good, the show, and it’s so cleverly-written, we play it all straight,” Danny said.
“I think me and [Ryan] are... perfectionists, we don’t like corpsing [breaking character to laugh]. After you’ve done it a few times, really, you don’t find it funny anymore.”
Ryan agreed, saying sometimes “you’re concentrating so much” the wild scenes stop seeming funny.
To be fair, it sounds like they had a lot of material with which to distract themselves.
The show’s synopsis reads: “Series 2 picks up two weeks after the shock news that the brothers’ dad’s not actually dead, and Lee and Glen are handling it very differently.
“But, with chaos mounting and questions piling up, the brothers unite on a mission to track him down.
“Meanwhile, Kirsty’s taking charge in the bedroom and the boardroom, but one badly timed kiss ― and a mysterious blackmailer ― threaten to bring it all crashing down. With secrets spilling and tempers flaring, it’s only a matter of time before the family blows up... again.”
Mr Bigstuff will return on Sky Max and NOW on Thursday, June 24.
