LONDON, May 6 (UPI) -- The producers of the new British reality show "Naked Office" say they are hunting for companies willing to have their employees shed their clothes.

Producers said the show, set for broadcast on BBC3, will first interview office employees to establish their thoughts on the subject of nudity. Then, over the course of several weeks, some will be asked to participate in life-drawing classes to help them become accustomed to public nakedness, The Sun reported Tuesday.

The show will climax with employees being asked to participate in a "Naked Friday" event at the office. The producers said in a letter inviting companies to participate that the nude work day would be a "very productive day as well as a day to remember."

The purpose of the program is to analyze attitudes toward nudity, body image and the role of clothing in office hierarchy, the producers said.
