Sian Reeves: I feel like a horse!

Sian Reeves has admitted she gets "fed up" with getting her legs out on TV series Mount Pleasant.

The Cutting It actress plays a neighbourhood temptress called Bianca in the show, which means she is often clad in eye-catching, skimpy outfits.

She said of her alter-ego's wardrobe: "Well, I enjoy it to start with, because I have a hand in it - I always like to have a talk with the designers about what I'm going to wear.

"But after a while you do get fed up with having your legs out all the time, and it takes me the longest time to get ready because I've got hair extensions, full make-up, and then on the day I have the make-up artists tanning my legs. They're like, 'Oh, we've just got her legs to do and then we'll be ready'. I feel like a horse being prepped for an equestrian event!"

Sian will be reunited with Robson Green on the second series of the show, as he is joining the cast.

She said: "Robson is just great, I worked with him on two series of Northern Lights and City Lights.

"I think it's quite interesting putting two people together who already know and like each other, because there's already a bit of a spark between us, we're not starting from scratch. I'm not saying I fancy him, but I do know him and we've had such a laugh - he's lovely fun. It's quite hard to force a natural chemistry and we have that already."

:: Mount Pleasant is on Wednesdays at 9pm from August 22 on Sky Living HD and Sky Go.
