Actress Claire Sweeney says she went skinny dipping on holiday - but was shocked to find a class full of schoolchildren staring at her. The embarrassed Brookside star had been 'training' with some friends - who were all wearing swimming costumes - on the Spanish island of Mallorca when the girls decided to take a morning dip.
But the 50 year old was the only one of the group without a costume, and after deciding to swim in the nude she emerged blushing to find a 'school party' staring at her from the shore. The mother of one told comedian Alan Carr's Life's a Beach podcast: "I've been skinny dipping once, and I had a bit of a bad experience...
"I'd been training with my friends and they decided to have a swim at eight o'clock in the morning. I didn't have a swimming costume with me because I didn't realise that was part of the thing that they do.
