Women bingo players had problems keeping their eyes down when barmen half-stripped for charity.

But the full house was only to be expected.

The Cancer Research fundraiser at Gala Bingo in Greenbridge was the idea of the four staff willing to shed their shirts to save lives.

The bingo hall hosts regular charity nights in aid of good causes.

During its latest a ladies' night customers were invited to give generously.

Before the event, assistant manager Ben Pitts said: "We like supporting very good causes.

"We try to do as much as possible for community charities.

"There will be buckets on the bar for donations, and we will be passing a couple of buckets among the customers during the second bingo session."
