LONDON, July 7 (UPI) -- A British television channel seeks on-air talent willing to work three nights nights for about $355 per shift -- and semi-nude.

The ad for an "adult TV channel presenter," posted on the Jobcenter Plus Web site, also warns applicants some of the work "may cause embarrassment to some people" and doesn't include a pension, The Daily Telegraph reported Tuesday.

"The successful applicant (will be) required to be semi-nude. Duties will involve working on a well known adult TV channel, which may cause embarrassment to some people," the Revolvers Models ad read. "Must have good spoken communication skills as will be taking calls from the general public live on air."

Sex is not part of the job, the ad said.

Job applicant Sophie Randall-Price told the Telegraph she did a double-take when she saw the ad.

"I'm broad-minded, but to think they want us to apply to such a sleazy job is really a bit too much," she said. "I'm willing to work hard, but I'm not willing to whip my top off and talk dirty to a bunch of weirdos in the middle of the night on national TV."
