SHANE Warne has managed to get himself in hot water
more than once, but what is he doing in the spa with
Kath and Kim?

And what will Kel and Bretty think about their wives
trying to get a closer look at Warnie's flipper?

All will be revealed when the champion cricketer stars
on next week's episode of the hit Seven Network series
Kath & Kim.

Warne admits he was nervous walking on to the set.
"But the girls (Gina Riley, who plays Kim, and Jane
Turner, who plays Kath) made me feel relaxed," he
says.

Executive producer Rick McKenna, who is married to
Riley, jokes he was "a bit edgy" about the leggie's
spa scenes.

"You were getting a bit close there, mate," he says to
Warne, who bursts into laughter.

Warne plays Wayne, a "not very good Shane Warne
impersonator" set to marry loser in love Sharon
Strzelecki (Magda Szubanski).

McKenna expected the script to come back from Warne
with changes, but the cricketer was happy to go along
with several jokes at his expense involving SMS
messages and mobile phones.

"It was funny. You have to be able to laugh at
yourself. Sometimes people take themselves a bit too
seriously," Warne says.
