Channel 4 has announced details of a new show that will see puppets act out erotic fan fiction.
Hosted by Mel Giedroyc, each episode of The Really Really Rude Puppet Show will see a different celebrity - and Giedroyc - provide the voices for the characters in a piece of adult creative writing.
"This is going to be a celebration of erotic fan fiction. With puppets," she said.
"Imagine a world where Jackie Collins meets Thunderbirds. I'm so looking forward to a trip to Love Island... via Tracy Island."
Vivienne Molokwu, C4's senior commissioning editor of factent, said: "I'm very much looking forward to steamy storytime with Mel, a gang of celeb mates and a bunch of lookalike puppets.
"This is a very Channel 4 way of encouraging creative writing, where artistic self-expression will be encouraged.
"We may well unearth the next E.L. James in the process, which has got to be a good thing."
The six-part series will air on Channel 4 later this year.
