If you’re looking for an alternative to the usual soppy, romantic Valentine’s Day, then look no further. Celebrating the launch of one of the most hotly anticipated films of the year, 3e is bringing you ‘The Real 50 Shades Weekend’.

 

Kicking off Friday 13th February at 11pm with an episode of Sex: How To Do Everything, entitled ‘Kinky’. The show sees sex writers Em and Lo take to the streets to find out more about people's attitudes towards bondage. The racy fun doesn’t end there as Dr Catherine Hood explores the secret of tantric sex at 12am in Girl's Guide To 21st Century Sex, rounding off your Friday night.

 

On Saturday, the most romantic night of the year, 3e has a few risqué Valentine’s Day offerings. First up at 9pm is a movie classic that has got many hot under the collar over the years – Basic Instinct. The 1992 erotic thriller sees Sharon Stone play Catherine Tramell, a successful bisexual mystery writer who may also be a ruthless murderer. Everyone close to Catherine dies, and troubled policeman Nick Curran (Michael Douglas) must find out why. In the process, Nick becomes sexually involved with both Catherine and police psychiatrist Beth Gardner (Jeanne Tripplehorn), while the bodies begin piling up and Catherine turns the cat-and-mouse game around on Nick.

 

Next at 11.40pm, spare your blushes for another round of Sex: How To Do Everything, but this episode is all about ‘Fantasy’. Gorgeous models Laura and Ricardo are on hand to demonstrate ways of living out your fantasies from dressing up in sexy outfits to dressing down with a sexy striptease.

 

And if you’re not too steamy by Sunday, I Have Sex With Strangers throws open the doors on one night stands at 10pm. This entertaining programme seeks out the wild, amorous people who think nothing of doing what some only dream of: having sexual encounters with complete strangers.

 

‘The Real 50 Shades Weekend’ kicks off Friday 13th February at 11pm on 3e.
