OUTRAGED viewers blasted TV channel Five yesterday for showing David Beckham scandal girl Rebecca Loos pleasuring a PIG.
The sickening act — in reality show The Farm — was branded “bestiality on the box”.
The brunette, 27, stimulated the boar for ten minutes as she collected a flask of semen to inseminate sows.
Loos later told fellow celebrities: “I gave it a w***.”
Five and TV watchdog Ofcom received a string of complaints over the graphic scenes.
Viewer Ian Millar, 32, said: “It turned my stomach.”
Clean-up campaigners demanded The Farm be taken off the air.
Loos ... 'I gave it a w***'
Horrified John Bayer, director of Mediawatch-UK, stormed: “This is sickening — it is nothing short of bestiality. It beggars belief that Five can think this is suitable for broadcast.
“The show should be taken off the air immediately.”
The RSPCA, which has complained to watchdog Ofcom about other antics on the show, accused producers of pandering to a “morbid and sordid fascination with farm animals”.
Loos — among celebrities acting as farmhands in the programme — donned rubber gloves after she was picked to stimulate the boar in a barn and collect its semen.
It took her ten minutes to fill a flask with nearly three quarters of a pint.
Afterwards she told fellow celebs how the boar was “thrusting really hard”. She added: “And then I grip.”
Loos, who hit the headlines over her alleged fling with England soccer skipper David Beckham in Spain, also moaned: “My arms are aching.”
Fellow farmhand Debbie McGee, 45, told her: “You must do it really well.”
Stan Collymore, 33, asked: “Was it good? Did you feel it?”
Around 1.6million viewers saw the scene on Tuesday during the programme’s hour-long 10pm slot.
Five spokesman Nick Dear yesterday insisted: “Rebecca was not chosen for some sort of titillation. The vet decided that she was the most competent person to do it.”
But Five and Ofcom were bombarded with complaints. Cabbie Ian Millar, 32, of Salford, Gtr Manchester, said: “It was horrible. I could barely watch.”
Hospital worker Matthew Hill, 34, of Cranbrook, Kent, said: “Who wants to see a pig doing this on TV? I just had to turn the telly off.”
Student Lydia Haines, 18, of Wythenshawe, Gtr Manchester said: “It was vile — one of the grossest things I’ve ever seen.”
Andrew Butler, of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, fumed: “This is just pure titillation and I’m sure Rebecca Loos was chosen for that reason.
“It’s outrageous. These celebrities should be nowhere near these animals. We want the programme taken off the air before any animals are harmed.”
Down on the farm indeed.
