Chris Evans has stripped off – with just a sock to cover his modesty.

The broadcaster appeared without any clothes in a promo to publicise the one-off return of his 90s TV series, TFI Friday.

Food critic Giles Coren also took part in the stunt.

The video begins with Giles knocking on Chris’ door to ask him about the return of the show and whether he could be in the Naked Parade.

Chris featured in the Naked Parade when the Channel 4 show originally ran in the 1990s.

But Chris, who recently shot down rumours he would replace Jeremy Clarkson on Top Gear, responded: “I think my body is over the nudity thing.”

A minute later, the pair can be seen naked sitting on a plush sofa – and Giles has a magazine to protect his modesty.

The show is returning to Channel 4 to mark the 20th anniversary of its debut.
