There is nothing we wont hear or see on screen, this is wonderful and same time unimaginable. Having s*x in front of a television audience. Lynette, 39, insisted she and Des, 41, are not exhibitionists. ‘We have s*x as part of a normal, healthy and loving relationship,’ she said. ‘I hope people will look at the programme in a positive light.’ Now Lynette Ellis and her partner Des Lashimba will doubtless face a public outcry when they appear on Channel 4’s provocative programme s*x box, in which they had s*x shrouded from view in a box in a television studio. The programme – from the channel which in the past faced a furore over screening a live autopsy and aired uncensored footage of penetrative s*x in the movie The Idiots – is the latest offering from the broadcaster that seems determined to offend. ‘Des was terrified he wouldn’t be able to do what was needed,’ Lynette confessed. ‘But I wore some s*xy underwear and that seemed to do the trick.’Photo below;

Three sets of couples will take part in the show which also features experts Phillip Hodson, left, Tracey Cox, centre, and Dan Savage Scores have branded the notion of s*x on television disgusting. Mary Beadnell wrote: ‘What the h*ll have we become as human beings?’ while Miranda said: ‘So there’s a new show called S*x Box where people have s*x on TV . . . sounds like p*rn to me.’ Presented by Mariella Frostrup, the show features three couples – one of them g*y – who each enter a box, and have s*x for 35 minutes before emerging to talk about their experiences with psychotherapist Phillip Hodson, s*x therapist Tracey Cox and relationship expert Dan Savage. Miss Frostrup said she initially had ‘great trepidation’ about the show but now thinks ‘it is a really mature look at a subject we’ve allowed to proliferate in its worst manifestations and refuse to confront’. The programme is based on the work of s*x therapists who encourage couples to have s*x then talk about it immediately afterwards while their feelings are vivid. Lynette and Des admitted there was no romantic ‘warm-up’ before they walked into the opaque, sound-proofed box, where they had 35 minutes to have s*x before emerging to talk about it with the experts.
‘Usually we’d take a lot more than half an hour from start to finish so it was a bit stressful,’ says Lynette. The couple said they were more used to spicing up their s*x life with romantic weekends. But there were no rose petals scattered on the bed in the box. ‘It looked like a basic room in a budget hotel,’ said Lynette, a mother of three. ‘It had a double bed, side tables with a lamp, a mini-disc player and a sink. It wasn’t quite what we’d expected.’ What a television programme.
