Pretty much all you need to know here is that this documentary focuses on three couples who spend their lives in the nude. And while the parents have no problem wandering around in the buff, their children, friends and neighbours react in different ways.

One of these couples we've seen before. Ian and Barbara Pollard have been featured on TV and in the press due to their horticultural work at Abbey House Gardens in Malmesbury in Wiltshire. Known as The Naked Gardeners (pictured), they do everything, including the pruning, in the nude. Their children are used to their way of life; it's a bit tricky sometimes when they bring back new friends to their home, but otherwise it's all fairly normal. And the Pollards' employees, once they get used to the sight of their bosses strolling around naked, don't have much of a problem with it either.

The other couples, larger-than-life Les and Sharon and matter-of-fact David and Diane, are equally unashamed about their naked lifestyle and no-one seems to bat too much of a eyelid.

So what have we got then? These people are nudists, pure and simple. Big deal. With material this thin, a half-hour documentary would have been pushing it; at an hour in length, it's way too much.

    I'd like to add another comment about this nude couple...

    I'd like to say that I'd love to see SOMEMORE nude pics here of/at this website BUT only nude pics of females (of all ages.) :D

    I DON'T CARE TO SEE/VIEW ANYMORE PICS OF NUDE MALES.

    Therefore, I hope that MORE nude pics of ONLY FEMALES (of various ages) will be shown here at this website.

    Thanks,

    Sincerely, Scott Lamb

    I'm NOT much of a person that likes to read, except for the newspapers

    (during the wkends.)

    BUT I think that this pic of this nude couple is a very nice pic.

    I really like the pic of the lady in this pic. :D

    However, I really don't care much for the pic of the man that's standing with this pretty, nude lady. :(

    Re Channel 5 "Sweaty Bett" on hyperhidrosis this week. I suffered that condition, and had sympathectomy operation many years ago before key-hole, but with post-op complications. Palms now dry, but torso bears brunt of sweating. Betty is as desperate as I was. I am much more confident, but what a price? Became a preacher. Healing miracle now in Florida (2 Apr 08 to date; one man healed of the condition. You dont have to be religious. Sorry I am unable to get there for my miracle.
