Maeve- Channel 4 1982
This thread is beginning to be a classic repository of so many of my favourite nude TV clips from the past, I thought I'd add a few of my own!
This one took me years to find, it's from a very PC Channel 4 drama from about 35 years ago. It's about the troubles in Northern Ireland and the effect it has on families from the Province.
Maeve and her sister move to London and live in a small bedsit apartment with no bath. So they share a portable bath in the room, the Maeve character forgets to dress for some time, whilst having a very earnest conversation with her sister. Then, for no reason the previously rather coy camera work treats us to a full on bush view of the main character, an actress called Mary Jackson! The other actress manages to keep her nudity hidden alas.
