Others in the Top 10 include Jennifer Ellison, who celebrates by posing for the Star in her underwear, Abi Titmuss and Kelly Brook.

There’s no place, however, for Coronation Street’s Jimmi Harkishin – possibly because his fans tend to just stick the calendar up their shirt and walk out of the shop without paying.

But the news in the Sun is that the man who plays Dirty Dev has been sent by soap bosses to rehab, where he can enjoy reading how he bedded redhead Kim Lee after a five-hour coke binge.
