House of Guinness is on Netflix and the historical drama was the creation of Peaky Blinders boss, Steven Knight.
The series tells the true story of the Guinness siblings as they continue their father’s brewing business following his death.
Anthony Boyle plays Arthur Guinness, and the star has opened up about filming the series and his excitement at the prospect of a second season.
He also spoke out about one particular scene during episode three, in which he was seen standing fully frontal whilst getting out of the bath.
Fans took to X, formerly Twitter, to say they were “blindsided” and the 31-year-old star has opened up about filming the scene.

While it did not bother him filming completely naked, he did have one worry about the audience following the show’s release.
Speaking to Town & Country, he was asked if he considers the large audience of Netflix intimidating, to which he said: “Yeah, definitely when I did the naked scene [laughs].
“Definitely when I did that, I was sat in that bath and I was like, ‘Oh wait, it’s gonna be like millions of people’.
“My focus is usually on the other person, less so than what I’m experiencing, but on the day that you’re getting naked, you’re like, ‘Oh god, I hope my f****** granny doesn’t see this!’
“Moments like that happen! But for the most part, I don’t think about the reach of the show, no.”
Taking to X to share their thoughts on the bath scene, Sharon SL shared: “Is no one talking about Arthur’s bath scene? What was that I just saw?”
Stoops commented: “Did NOT expect to see that in the bath scene, holy hell.”
Addressing the future of the series, Boyle said he would love to return for a second season if it was given the green light by Netflix.
Speaking exclusively to Reach titles at a screening of the series, he said: “If they want to do a second season, I’d love to. I think the scripts were amazing and I really enjoyed the cast and directors.
“I loved it, I love the end product. It’s a show I’m really proud of and if they wanted to go again I’d be overjoyed.”
