There has been a fair bit of unfavourable noise about the new airport body scanners, so much so that they will not be used on children. To be honest, I haven't been paying much attention, that is until I saw a video, see below, of the images that are captured.

Currently on trial in Heathrow Terminal 2, Sarah Barrett, head of customer experience at the airport, said.

''Most of our customers do not like the traditional ''pat down'' search, they find it too intrusive, but they still want to be kept safe.

''This scanner completely takes away the hassle of needing to undress. The images are not erotic or pornographic and they cannot be stored or captured in anyway,'' she said.

She's right there, there is no need to undress, these machines show every bulge, cervice and implant. No wonder they are nicknamed the 'naked' scanner. If like me, you wear your comfy knickers when travelling, you may want to think again.

Take a look for yourself ...
