KARA Tointon bared her bum in a sexy scene for new ITV period drama The Halcyon.

The 33-year-old star delighted viewers during a daring bath scene on Monday evening.

The Halcyon tells the story of a glamorous London hotel in the early, uncertain days of the Second World War.

And in one sexy scene during the opening episode, Kara’s character, Alex Jennings, stripped naked as she takes a bath in her boss's luxurious room.

The actress revealed her nerves ahead of the scene in a recent interview.

Kara said: “That was interesting because it's not such a sexy scene; it's just her standing up with nothing on.

“It made it more nerve-wracking, actually,"

Thankfully with the help of some "sticky bits", the former EastEnders star overcame her worries.

She added: "Honestly, it was fine.”
