Rochester pin-up Kelly Brook will be baring all on the West End stage from next month.

The model and television presenter will be joining the new cast of Tim Firth’s stage adaptation of the hit film Calendar Girls.

Kelly will be taking on the role of Celia (Miss September), replacing Jerry Hall.

She will be starring alongside former Coronation Street legend Julie Goodyear, who will play Cora, best-selling author Arabella Weir as Chris, and former newsreader Jan Leeming who will step into the role of Lady Cravenshire.

Rob James Collier, who played Liam Connor in Coronation Street, will make his London stage debut as the photographer Lawrence.

Calendar Girls has broken all box office records at the Noël Coward Theatre in London since it began in with takings of more than £190,000 each week.

The current cast will continue until October 31, and the new cast will take to the stage on November 3.
