Jack O'Connell has revealed that he is unfazed by filming sex scenes for Skins.

However, the 20-year-old actor - Cook in the E4 teen drama - told DS that he feels sorry for the makeup crew who have to draw his alter ego's tattoo on his bottom.

"I'm not very prone to humiliation on that front," he said. "We've all got one, haven't we? Depending what gender!

"Especially when it's decorated in that manner - I don't feel like people are looking at my bum, they're looking at the detail on it. But because that doesn't exist, it means Cook keeps his trousers on because makeup have to tattoo my arse!"

He added: "I don't know how appealing a task that sounds for a middle-aged woman of such professionalism! It won't add no spring in her step!"

SAUCY Skins beauty Kaya Scodelario wishes she could have been part of the show's racy lesbian plot.

The actress said she was disappointed she did not get to join in the action between characters Naomi Campbell (Lily Loveless) and Emily Fitch (Kathryn Prescott).

Kaya, 17 - who plays Effy Stonem - told TV Biz: "Unfortunately I wasn't in the lesbian storyline but I would have loved to have been.

"Acting out lesbian scenes would have been really fun.

"I have so much respect for Kat and Lily that they can make it work because neither of them are lesbians but it looks so beautiful and real."

Skins star Lily Loveless has suggested that her character should be given her own spinoff.

The 19-year-old actress, who plays sexually-confused teen Naomi Campbell in the E4 series, also praised the producers for axing the cast again.

"Series that carry on for ages with the same cast - the amount of things would happen would become very unbelievable," she told DS.

Skins star Luke Pasqualino has confessed he's upset his days on the show are coming to an end, but hopes to move on to "bigger and better" things.

The 19-year-old has played skateboard fanatic Freddie Mclair in the third and fourth series of the E4 teen drama and has mixed feelings about leaving when the show moves on to follow another group of youngsters.

Luke said: "It feels weird actually, because Skins is the first TV job I'd ever done - this is kind of where it really started for me."

He added: "It's been such an amazing platform for me to help get where I am. But in a way I want to be able to get out of Skins and kind of move on and do better things, bigger and better, and just build up my career really.

"But on another note... I'm a bit upset to be leaving because you build up a little family on set and all of that kind of stuff. So yeah, a bit mixed for me."
