Emma Thompson may not have heard Sean Bean's controversial comments about intimacy coordinators ruining the moment.

During an appearance on the Fitzy & Wippa radio show, as detailed by The Hollywood Reporter, the actress.

She explained in no uncertain terms that having fake sex as an actor on camera is "not a comfortable situation, full stop."

I don’t know you were speaking to somebody who found it distracting, but another conversation you might find [is] that people go, 'It made me comfortable.

It made me feel as though I was able to do this work,'" Thompson pushed back against Bean's sentiment, even as she seemed to indicate she was unfamiliar with them.
