Jerry Hall has stripped on stage before and she is doing it again.

Naked ambition: from left, Gemma Atkinson, Jill Halfpenny, June Brown, Anita Dobson, Sara Crowe, Jill Baker and Jerry Hall

The 52-year-old model and actress, who bared all in the stage production of The Graduate in 2001, is pictured for the first time heading the new cast of Calendar Girls, the stage show based on the true story of the Women's Institute members who posed nude for charity.

Even the original WI models might be forced to concede the new line-up has extra glamour.

Sir Mick Jagger's ex will be joined by Anita Dobson, 60, Jill Halfpenny, 33, Sara Crowe, 43, and, Gemma Atkinson, 24, a former star of Hollyoaks.

Richenda Carey, 61, and Jill Baker, 57, will also join the recruits when they take over on 28 July at the Noel Coward Theatre.

The grande dame of the cast will be June Brown — Dot from EastEnders — baring (nearly) all at 82.

The producers donate the £1.50 booking fee, royalties and profits to leukaemia research, for which the real Calendar Girls raised funds.
