[I&#8217;m] not a fan of doing them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nHenry previously admitted he was left embarrassed when filming a sex scene for &#8216;The Tudors&#8217; &#8211; in which he played Charles Brandon &#8211; at the age of 23 and he got an erection.<\/p>\n<p>\nHe told Men&#8217;s Fitness magazine in 2015: &#8220;It&#8217;s only happened to me once.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;A girl had to be on top of me, she had spectacular breasts and I hadn&#8217;t rearranged my stuff into a harmless position. She&#8217;s basically rubbing herself all over me and, um, it got a bit hard.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nHe apologised afterwards and admitted: &#8220;It&#8217;s not great when you&#8217;re in a professional acting environment and somebody gets [an erection] is it?
