THIS is the moment British actor Tyger Drew-Honey confronted the man who ‘flashed’ him on Denia beach last Saturday afternoon.
Drew-Honey, 23, was relaxing in Denia when he spotted a man ‘licking his lips’ and ‘masturbating’ in the nearby bushes.
The Outnumbered BBC sitcom star confronted the man, who slipped his private parts back into his trousers, but neglected to zip up his flies.
In a video shared with the Olive Press, Drew-Honey tells the camera ‘I’ve just been flashed by this guy on the beach’.
The man asks Drew-Honey to stop filming before he retaliates: “Yeah mate, well you need to stop walking around on the beach flashing young men.”
“This man just flashed me. I have officially been flashed,” Drew-Honey then says.
The incident happened last Saturday around 5pm after Drew-Honey took a walk from where his father – actor and producer Lindsey Honey a.k.a. Ben Dover – was playing drums for his band the Soggy Bottoms.
“My dad was playing a gig at a private villa about a mile north of the port,” Drew-Honey told the Olive Press.
“I walked down to get some hats and sunglasses, and then sat on the beach.
“I considered going for a dip when this man started circling me.
“I thought ‘that seems like the behaviour of a flasher’, so I turned round and caught him licking his lips at me.
“I hurled abuse at him and he whipped his private parts away, and then just sat there.
“It occurred to me as I was walking away that I should shame him, so I went back to film.”
Drew-Honey added he was ‘not spooked’ by the alleged incident.
He said he has not yet gone to Denia police about the alleged crime, as he is due to return to the UK where he is touring with the play Posh, by Laura Wade.
