Shameless star quits over Tina sex scenes

Shameless star Sean Gilder is quitting the hit show - because he can't face more sex scenes with Tina Malone.

The Sun, 6th March 2010

An almost Frank-free zone this week, presumably because actor David Threlfall was too busy directing the episode to be in it. Instead the focus is on Paddy (Sean Gilder) and his personal credit crunch. Struggling to pay his share of the christening costs (an event that will only go ahead if Karen remembers where she's left baby Connor), he comes up with a plan for the family business. Unfortunately, the rest of the family aren't keen. But there's one thing everyone on the Chatsworth Estate is keen on - and that's sex. Preferably wild, abandoned sex involving a trapeze, a nurse's uniform, adult toys and an audience. It's not called Shameless for nothing.
