Poldark’s Aidan: BBC banned me from having fun

BEING a body beautiful can be awfully tiresome.

Poldark star Aidan Turner, who stripped off within minutes of the second series starting on Sunday, says the BBC has banned him from outdoor pursuits in case he injures himself. ‘ I’d like to say I go surfing, but I’m not really allowed to do a lot of things,’ reveals the 33-year- old. ‘They want to keep me fit and relatively healthy.

‘Cream teas and horse riding when I’m not on set is a bit of a faux pas. It’s prohibited.’ Who knew cream teas could be so dangerous?
