Buns 'too small' in advert

Posters promoting a play starring actress Kelly Brook have had to be changed because buns covering her breasts were deemed to be too small.

The posters for Calendar Girls featured a nude photograph of the star holding iced buns up to her chest. Transport for London (TfL) demanded the buns be enlarged before allowing the poster to be used in Tube stations.

The play's producer David Pugh said: "We've found ourselves in the world of censorship, we're in 1960s Russia."



Brook plays the role of Celia in the West End play, which tells the story of Women's Institute members who decide to bare all for a charity calendar.

Mr Pugh said he found TfL's decision "incredible" and said similar shots of cast members Jerry Hall and Gaynor Faye were used in previous posters. "Someone is sitting in a dark room somewhere peering at any sort of nudity," he said.

Mr Pugh added: "They said we were trying to titillate Tube travellers, I thought it was a joke. I don't know what the buns would be in bra sizes but we've gone four sizes up."
