IF you have seen 'The Full Monty' and think you have what it takes to get your kit off, you could be starring in a naughty new show in Blackburn!

Knockout Productions, based in Birkenhead, are on the lookout for some local lad to become a fifth member of the group to go on a nationwide tour with the Ultimate Fantasy Show: World Cup Widows Tour 98.

Several hunky contenders have already been tracked down which means any confident young males with neat torsos and trim bottoms are urged to apply quickly.

Applicants should be willing to strip off and not be averse to baby oil!

Knockout Productions managing director Brian Dixon said the four members of the team were from the South and he would like a Northern lad to join the line-up.

Brian said: "Our show has been so successful that we have not got enough men to do all the dates we have got on the tour. It is really packing them in, especially with the huge success of the film 'The Full Monty'.

He added: "They can earn good money. This sort of thing is very popular at the moment." Six or seven hopefuls will be invited to an audition, where they will perform a three minute routine.

They will then appear in the show in the Windsor Suite at King George's Hall on July 2 with the ladies having the final say.

Anyone who thinks they can handle hundreds of screaming females should send a photograph of themselves plus name, address and telephone number, to: The Full Monty, The Citizen Newsdesk, Newspaper House, High Street, Blackburn, BB1 1HT.

We will pass the photos on to Knockout Productions.
