Phillip Schofield strips n@ked on Cast Away as viewers gobsmacked

The final episode of Phillip Schofield: Cast Away aired last night and one scene has left viewers covering their eyes!

The three-part series aired this week as Phil took on the challenge of spending 10 days alone on a desert island. Over the course of the 10 days, he addressed his affair sandal and ITV exit.

Phillip dropped several bombshells throughout the three episodes. But one scene on Wednesday night’s show seems to have left viewers just as shocked.

Phil, 62, told the camera during one night: “This next scene I will shoot, but I need approval. Explicit approval. Thank you.”

Speaking about the future, Phil said: “I want to look forward with positivity and joy.”

A scene then shows Phil running n@ked into the sea at night.

Phil is heard saying in a voiceover: “What an opportunity!”

“What’s next for me? Nothing. I’m happy with nothing.”

Phil added: “I’ve got family and friends and a dog.”
