But Phoebe Thomas was stripping off not to shock but in the name of art as she and a film crew shot a very modern re-telling of the Lady Godiva legend.
Lady Godiva's modesty was said to be preserved only by her long tresses when she rode naked through the streets of Coventry in protest against her husband's harsh taxation of his people.
But thanks to advances in fabric technology since the original Godiva's day, she was also able to slip into a flesh-coloured thong and tights to make the ride a little more comfortable.

  Joan Collins - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1951, she made her feature debut as a beauty contest entrant in Lady Godiva Rides.
Unfortunately, like her other two marriages, Collins's third attempt at matrimony failed as she and Kass divorced in 1983 as he battled substance abuse, although they remained very close until his death, from cancer, in 1986 as Collins was riding the crest of her super stardom on Dynasty.
In 1985, Collins became a bride for the fourth time when she married Swedish singer Peter Holm in a quickie ceremony in Las Vegas.

Holiday Camp (with Jack Warner) and Dancing With Crime (with Richard Attenborough) soon followed and when she was accepted into a school for young actors set up by J Arthur Rank she was already an established film actress.
Her first major role was in the 1948 film, Here Come The Huggets, again alongside Jack Warner, and she had a leading role in Diamond City, a year later.
But it was Lady Godiva Rides Again (1951) which launched her as a sex symbol after the American Board of Film Censors temporarily banned the film for being too risque and later insisted Diana's navel be covered up for the US version.
