Rosie Bentham reveals secrets of raunchy Emmerdale scenes

Rosie Bentham has confessed filming raunchy scenes for 'Emmerdale' is not very "sexy".

The 22-year-old actress plays maneater Gabby Thomas in the hit ITV soap and she's opened up about what it's like when she's creating saucy moments on camera - insisting it's "never weird or awkward' when she has to get intimate with her co-stars.

She told The Sun newspaper: "They really aren’t that sexy to film. It’s more about the practicality of the kiss and making sure you get the camera angle right. I can safely say that I’ve never banged heads with anyone during a kissing scene, but it does happen. You can request an intimacy co-ordinator but I’ve never needed one.

When you’re working that closely with someone you become really good mates. It’s never weird or awkward, because you’re working with them every day and it’s just part of the job."

She went on to insist she's nothing like her character in real life because she's always "very well behaved" on nights out.

Rosie added: "When people first meet me they think I’m this ‘ready to give everything to everyone’ kind of girl, but I’m like, ‘No, you’ve got to try a lot harder than that with me, you can’t just walk through the door’.

"If that was Gabby she’d be raring to go and be like, ‘Come on then, let’s go upstairs’, which is obviously a lot of fun to play, but I’m nothing like that. I’m always very well behaved on a night out."

Rosie recently took a break from the soap as Gabby fled to sunny Portugal following her latest heartbreak, but the actress said her character needed some timeout. She told Inside Soap:"She needs to reset. Heartbreak can be long and tedious but she knows that she needs to get it all out. The tears need to come."
