Last year saw the image of Helena Bonham-Carter posing naked with a 27kg tuna go viral.
And now theatre stars such as Emma Thompson have now lent their naked bodies to the FishLove campaign as they posed with dead sea life in order to highlight the dangers of overfishing in British seas.
The stage and screen star, 56, stripped off with her husband Greg Wise for the unique shoot which saw them posing with two deep sea Black Scabbard fish from Portugal.

ShareSpeaking about why they chose to help with the campaign, the pair said: ‘You do feel a little guilty holding a huge dead fish while you are very much alive, but by doing this Fishlove portrait with a deep-sea Black Scabbard fish we want to make clear the message: if we don’t end the overfishing and pollution of the ocean, all these beautiful creatures are threatened.
They added: ‘In particular, deep-sea fishing is unsustainable, unnecessary and should stop’.
