‘I didn’t have to fake anything!’ Emma Corrin joked their family ‘coped’ while watching their ‘exhilarating’ nude scenes in Lady Chatterley’s Lover during Friday’s Graham Norton Show

‘And there was a crazy scene where they both dance naked in the rain. For some reason I was like, “Yes, sign me up!” 

‘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.’

Asked if her family has seen the film, they joked, ‘They all sat through it and all coped – weirdly I felt more sorry for my flatmates having to sit next to my family while they watched it. But, they are all still talking to me!’

On the show, Graham also welcomes Winston Duke, Michaela Coel, Paul Mescal, Richard Ayoade – with music from Loyle Carner.

‘The last scene, when Connie goes to Scotland and she knows he’s behind her before he’s there, we filmed that quite near the beginning, and I’d forgotten. When I was watching it for the first time, it really got me.’

Emma also spoke about the importance of touch in the movie.

They said: ‘I think [touch] was a huge part of it that in COVID everyone felt that lack of intimacy not being able to hug family, or be near people you care about.

Intimate: One scene shows Emma showering amid her affair with Jack

‘Connie is so starved of any intimacy, physical intimacy. I wonder if studies have been done now about how people haven’t realized how much we need that. 

‘We need comfort, touch, and intimacy as part of our mental wellbeing and stability.’

Emma continued that intimacy is a common theme in her most recent work.

Love: The X-rated trailer displayed the passion between Connie and Mellors

They said: ‘There can be so much in a simple touch. In Chatterley, Policeman, The Crown, if you’re going to find a common denominator there, it’s that these women long to be freed within themselves, and recognized, and validated in their sexuality.

‘It’s amazing if you think about how they’re all set at very different periods of time, and yet that is something that is sort of timeless, the need to be wanted, to be desired. 

‘They explore it in very different ways. Connie manages to find that freedom. It grounds her and brings her back to life.’
