From eco warriors to, Stacey Dooley thought she’d seen it all… until she met a whipping a slave with an electric fly swatter.
In the latest episode of Sleeps Over, which follows Stacey spending 72 hours as a house guest for some extraordinary people, the documentary-maker met with Sherry, a dominatrix who makes money by performing a whole range of services for her clients.
In one scene, Stacey visits Sherry’s ‘playroom’ to witness what some of those services are, and although the conservatory-playroom is lined with whips and , the TV presenter gets quite the shock when she sees what’s really about to happen.
First, Sherry (who goes my Mistress Sofia at work) sends her client outside to forage for some stinging nettles to use on himself, but unfortunately none are to be found.
Next, he’s asked to strip down n**ed.n**ed and is whipped with an electric fly swatter on his bits, as well as clamps being attached and pulled off his nipples.
Stacey, much like those watching at home, was quite shocked and even more stunned as she watched the man visibly in pain at the whips.
Reflecting on the experience after, she said watching the nipple clamping made her ‘gums feel funny.’
Although Stacey was left in shock, the 44-year-old masked slave, whose identity was kept hidden, revealed: ‘I feel fantastic, I really do.
‘It’s not about me, to me, it’s about Mistress Sofia. To find a mistress who is a dominatrix is the best feeling for me.’
He added that he wasn’t paying the £120 per hour for the service, and travelling nearly 100 miles for the sessions, ‘for sex or sexual gratification at all,’ but got his ‘kinks out of her dominating’ him.
Speaking about her client, Sherry called him one of her ‘real genuine lifestyle slaves’.
‘Whatever I say goes. He said, “I’m a slave for life”, so he’s going to be the one pushing me round in a wheelchair eventually.
‘He’s a masochist, so he absolutely loves punishment and pain,’ she added, comparing her service to ‘an art.’
‘I love when I stand back and see what I’ve done, I think, “Yeah, that’s really well done, that should be in the Louvre hanging on the wall.”‘
While Sherry may hope this client would be pushing her around in a wheelchair, it was only a few years ago that the then 65-year-old appeared on First Dates in 2017, looking for something more than just a client-dominatrix relationship.
Her first appearance on the Channel 4 show didn’t go so well – with her date John laughing about her day job.
While John had told their waiter she was really into him, the camera cut to Sherry moaning about her awful date in the bathroom, and wishing that the same waiter was a few years younger!
In the post date interview, she let John know her thoughts, claiming he was disrespectful and that she never wanted to see him again.
Her next date was slightly luckier, and remained a popular pairing for fans.
Sherry felt obliged to address ‘the elephant in the room,’ and was clearly nervous for his reaction.
‘It’s not prostitution,’ she confirmed, ‘and I like what I do because I’m good at it.’
But, Dave’s response to Sherry’s working life was a breath of fresh air, with him laughing: ‘Not that it’s up to me to judge, but I’ve got absolutely no problem with that,’ as she shared that her ‘slaves’ doubled up as house cleaners.
He in turn felt obliged to share his own juicy secret: he was getting a knee replacement!
Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over airs on Mondays on W and is available online on UKTV Play.
