Gentleman Jack viewers were blushing after a steamy sex scene in the latest episode.
The eight-part BBC One series follows Regency landowner Anne Lister, who is regarded as the “first modern lesbian”.
Sunday night’s instalment focused on Lister’s (Suranne Jones) budding relationship with Ann Walker (Sophie Rundle).
As Lister told Walker about her time in France, viewers saw her in bed with a naked woman.
The racy scene prompted plenty of response on social media.
“Bloody hell that was a flashback and a half,” one viewer said on Twitter.
