Richard & Judy Recreate Lennon Bed In

Richard Madeley and Judy Finnegan are unrecognisable as they pose as John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
The presenter couple looked a world away from their usual coiffed and suited appearance as they don pyjamas and wigs to recreate Lennon and Ono's 1969 bed-in.
Finnegan, 60, covered her blonde crop with a long black wig, while Madeley, 52, donned a brown wig, stick-on facial hair and glasses for the photo shoot with Heat magazine.
Beatles legend Lennon and his Japanese wife Ono famously spent two weeks in bed in Amsterdam and Montreal during March and May 1969 in protest at the Vietnam war.
The first stage of their bed-in at the presidential suite of the Amsterdam Hilton came just days after they married in Gibraltar.
Madeley and Finnegan recreated the bed-in as they prepare to launch their new TV show Richard & Judy's New Position on digital channel Watch, which starts on October 7th.

In the accompanying interview with this week's Heat, Madeley admits he would love to interview Madonna and Tom Cruise, but of course, wouldn't mince his words when broaching delicate subjects like religion or their marriages.
Madeley insists he wouldn't be afraid to ask Cruise about his controversial Scientology religion.
He said: 'If he said You can't ask me about Scientology because you're coming from a fixed, prejudiced position," I'd tell him to f**k off.

The couple are no stranger to dressing up - they've previously posed as Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie for the publication.

In 2000, Madeley embarrassingly dressed up as Sacha Baron Cohen's character Ali G, asking Finnegan: 'Is it because I is black' and calling her 'Me Judy'.
