A YOUNG temptress from Blackpool is getting pulses racing and passions soaring -- by posing as a sultry seductress in the raunchy fly-on-the-wall documentary Temptation Island.

Sam Hearn from North Shore applied to be on the show after seeing the advert in The Stage and since filming has resumed life as a drama student in London.

The 26-year-old is one of 13 gorgeous girls who were specially picked to act as temptresses to four brave British chaps -- who were definitely not on the "singles market".

The British version of the popular US show goes out on Sky One at 10pm every Sunday and follows four couples as they embark on an incredible journey.

Although in long-term relationships, they travel to a remote tropical island where their devotion to each other is put to the ultimate test as the temptation mounts in the form scantily-clad and gorgeous young men and women.

The former Greenlands pupil explained why she went in for the show: "I saw the advert and I had already seen the American version and thought, I don't have a boyfriend so why not?"

When asked what she got up to on the island she replied: "The island was just off The Honduras and was beautiful. I didn't want to leave -- it was all good fun."
