The Crown's Emma Corrin has shared what it was like to film a new adaptation of Lady Chatterley's Lover in Wales - naked. The 26-year-old, who came to prominence in her role as Diana, Princess of Wales, plays the titular character in the film, which was shot at Merthyr Mawr House and Estate in Bridgend last year.
And on The Graham Norton Show on Friday, November 6, the actor tells the host exactly what it was like shooting the new role. Emma said: “When I got the script, Laure (de Clermont-Tonnerre) our director was already attached and she is incredible, and there was a crazy scene where they both dance naked in the rain. For some reason I was like, ‘Yes, sign me up!”
Golden Globe-winning Emma added that the scene was "exhilarating" to film. “I think certainly that it was the most exhilarating thing I have ever done in my life. In film making it is pretend so it’s rare that you are actually in a situation where you are literally thinking and feeling exactly as your character would be. Being completely naked in the Welsh countryside meant you didn’t have to fake anything, you were just feeling it and it was quite amazing."
