Lucy Davis has admitted that she and fellow "The Office" star Martin Freeman held nothing back in the final episode of the hit show.

Davis, who played secretary Dawn in the British comedy, admitted to Heat magazine that she and Freeman, who played Tim, used tongues when they finally ended months of office sexual tension and kissed.

The scene occurred in the second part of last year's Christmas special, which heralded the end of the last-ever series.

"Well, you have to don't you?" said Davis, who is the daughter of Brummie comedian Jasper Carrot.

"At the end of the day two people like Tim and Dawn are going to use tongues.

"That's how I kiss, it would be weird, it would look weird - even though I hope no-one could see a tongue."

The actress, who has recently been linked with a new American sit-com produced by Phoebe from "Friends", also revealed that the kissing scenes were made easier by the fact that co-star Freeman was good looking.

She even said that many viewers assumed the pair were a couple off-screen as well as on it.
