Prue Leith really has...err... bared all during an interview on The Jonathan Ross Show, where scenes are set to show her discussing the time she accidentally wondered into an orgy.

Speaking on the show, the Great British Bake Off star reflected on the orgy visit, telling Jonathan she was "so embarrassed" when she realised where she was.

The orgy had taken place in Paris, and hilariously, the 81-year-old said she stripped off to blend in, but spent the evening making excuses so she did not have to join in on the action.

"I did go to an orgy in Paris, but I have to claim I didn't know I was going to go to an orgy," she laughed. "I thought I was going to a party. Went with a very nice guy, so thought that would be great.

"All I can say is room after room of bouncing bottoms everywhere... on the floor, in all the rooms. I was so embarrassed.

"Anyhow, this guy, he thought it was fantastic. So he just vanished.

"So there I am, 19 or something. So I went to the bar and somebody immediately said to me, 'Why have you got your clothes on?' I said, 'I'm just going to change'.

"I'd walk away. Someone else saying, 'Why have you got clothes on?'

"So I realised the only way to be invisible was to take my clothes off.

"So I took my clothes off and walked around this party. Spent the next hour saying I was going to the bar, the loo, looking for a friend. I missed the orgy, although I was there!"

Prue has spoken about her accidental orgy visit before, but the new details are sure to have fans in stitches, especially given her prim and proper persona on GBBO.

She appears to have had quite a wild time in the Sixties, as the baking pro has also previously revealed how she had once taken LSD.

"One day, we did take acid - only once - and I must tell you, it was the most appalling experience I've ever had," she said during LBC in an interview with Scottish Tory leader Ruth Davidson, last year.

"I had absolute horrific hallucinations. I couldn't look at [my companion] because he turned into a kind of monster, and my arms, the flesh dripped off them. There was just bones left."

Adding that the experience had a long-lasting impact, South African born Prue went on: "I'd have nightmares. And when I woke up, nothing would look like I knew it ought to look.

"It would be wobbly or strange or growing and sinking and shrinking and expanding.

"And right until my, I suppose, sixties, I would still sometimes wake up in the night and I felt I could see the air, you know? It was almost patterned, like little squares or pixels."

Oh, Prue.
