One scene in a new Netflix drama has got people asking some pretty frank questions about how exactly the scene was shot.
If you've seen the new Netflix drama Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story you'll probably be aware of THAT scene in the hit show.
It sees two characters Tony and Erik showering together in prison, with the scene leaving nothing to the imagination.

Actor Cooper Koch appeared completely nude in the scene, shocking fans.
Taking to social media, one surprised viewer wrote: "Jaw was on the floor with Cooper Koch’s shower scene."
When we say the scene left nothing to the imagination, that's exactly what we mean.
While some shows will shoot nude scenes to strategically obscure actors' rude bits with a well-placed pillow, cut, or tree branch, this was most certainly not doing that.
And this had some viewers all thinking the same thing about a certain part of the star's anatomy which was shown in the scene.
That was, whether the sight which greeted viewers in the scene was the real deal, or if Koch had worn a prosthetic.
People took to Facebook to share their thoughts, with one writing: "Cooper Koch is my new obsession. Also, was it a prosthetic in the shower scene?"
Another expressed their surprise at the scene, commenting: "Definitely surprised me to see they showed all that."
Meanwhile a third shared that the quality of prosthetics had improved, posting: "You wouldn’t be able to tell the difference, cosmetics and prosthetics have come a long way since the beginning of time!"
Koch opened up about doing a nude scene in the drama, telling The Queer Review: “My mother had some reservations."
He added that he'd been okay with it as it had not been 'sexualised' and was 'part of the story' and not 'flashy nudity used to garner attention'.
The actor also explained that it's not his first rodeo when it comes to appearing in nude scenes in a performance.
He said: “I did Hair in college, where we all got naked on stage, and I did an art installation with a director where I was naked. So I’ve had some experience with nudity as a performer before and it’s always been done really respectfully and artistically.
"I was definitely still a little nervous and apprehensive about it, but I think anyone would be that way. Ultimately though, it was great and I was super okay with it.”
