GRUBBY SHOWERS TELLY HELEN WITH FILTH!

SPORTS presenter Helen Skelton was subjected to a torrent of off- colour FILTH last week – and it was all the fault of the noxious Daily Mail.

The one- time mid- market newspaper has plunged gutterwards since embracing the internet with its online edition.

As a result, female celebrities who appear on the paper’s website are daily bombarded with smut, innuendo and downright obscenity.

Last week it was the turn of Helen, 34, after she appeared in a low- cut dress for a presenting stint at the World Swimming Championships in Budapest.

The Mail blathered on about Helen’s dress and accessories, cynically working readers into a frenzy of keyboardbashing lust.

One reader from the south east of England leered: “Come on Helen, get ’ em out. You know you want to!”

Another wrote: “Well I would!”, and yet another leered on the Mail’s online comment board: “Enough of this flipperyflappery, just show us your squirrel.”

Squirrel is slang for a lady’s vagina.

Yet another reader snarled: “I would be buried up to the balls” FRENZY: Sick Mail readers lusted over sexy Helen while yet another commented: “I most definitely would – twice, if she was lucky.”

Last night a friend of the beauty said: “Helen is a professional presenter who is on TV because of her skills and her hard work.

“It’s 2017 and the idea that a woman on TV is fair game for this sort of nonsense is appalling.

“The Daily Mail these days is little more than a platform for those who would make virtual online wolf whistles at passing women.”
