She spends more time in her bikini these days than fully clothed.But Helen Flanagan appeared to be using her tiny swimwear in an attempt to land herself a role in the hotly-anticipatedBaywatch movie as she holidayed in Dubai recently.

The former I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here! contestant took the opportunity to prove that she has well and truly mastered the art of slow motion running in a tiny two-piece as she made the most of the sunshine break.Helen sported a barely-there turquoise cut-out bikini as she bounded along the sands, wearing a wide smile on her face and her blonde hair piled on top of her head in a messy topknot.The 22-year-old appeared entirely aware of the photographer on the beach as she leaped around, darting in and out of the water with grace.

After the apparently impromptu shoot, Helen cooled off with a dip in the sea, gasping with shock and delight as one particularly aggressive wave soaked her through.Later in the day, Helen took some time off from being photographed as she soaked up the sun on a lounger.The actress was seen being served drinks by a waiter on the beach, but still managed to pose for a photo as she rose to sign the bill.

If Helen was to be snapped up for a role in the Baywatch movie, it would mark her first acting part since she left Coronation Street in February 2012.At the time, Helen insisted her decision to stop playing Rosie Webster in the ITV soap was so that she could pursue other ventures.She said at the time: ‘I have played Rosie for more than half my life and I feel the time has come for me to move on and try something new.’I am very excited about what the future might hold for me. I have loved playing Rosie and ­during my time growing up on Corrie I have made some amazing friends and learned an awful lot.’ – DailyMail
