The Fire/Ice News bulletins will be broadcast Saturday and Sunday nights on one of the many new digital TV channels springing up in the territory, the South China Morning Post said.

The first show, to be aired this weekend, features newsreader Chan Long, a willowy 18-year old girl who strips through the five-minute bulletin until she is completely naked.

"It's not easy, synchronising news-reading and taking off all your clothes," Chan, a model who has just graduated from secondary school, told the newspaper.

Although Chan is the only presenter the show has so far, producer Jesse Au King-wai says he hopes to enlist more.

"It's equal opportunity for men and women," he told the Post. "I am planning for male readers on the show as well -- there is a niche market for gay men."
