Gavin And Stacey star Joanna Page has said she was “groped” by a TV host after being warned about him.
The actress said a female producer told her he could be “very handsy” and is “probably going to start touching you”
The actress made the comments in an interview with The Times.
She added she was not naming the person for legal reasons.
In the interview ahead of the release her autobiography, the 48-year-old said: “Halfway through filming, he starts groping me.
“I hit his hands and said, ‘What do you think you’re bloody doing? I feel like I’m in Bristol Zoo being mauled by the lions.'”
After that he stopped, she said.
“It was bizarre, a female producer telling you this was going to happen, but it’s what you got used to,” Ms Page added.
As well as starring in Gavin and Stacey, Ms Page hosts podcast Off The Telly, with EastEnders star Natalie Cassidy, and has appeared in films including From Hell and Love Actually.
