Dead Set is a BBC produced 6 episode tv series which takes place during and on the set of Britain's Big Brother Reality TV series.
IMDB provides the plot:
During a fictional series of Big Brother, a zombie outbreak occurs, but the house-mates are unaware of the impending doom outside of the Big Brother House.
After the outbreak hits the studio, it is shown that the housemates have everything they need to survive in the Big Brother house. But what kind of series would this be if they didn't invite danger? Once they do however, Shit. Gets. Real.

As the series progresses, the tension is readily apparent and the pacing matches the frenzied state of affairs. At first, the housemates are oblivious to their situation. When reality sets in, lines are drawn, loyalties are questioned and it becomes a fight for survival.
Here is a link to the trailer. (Embedding has been disabled, but the trailer doesn't do it justice anyway.)
If you're into the zombie genre, definitely give this series a shot. The BBC is known for producing high quality television and this is no exception.
Violence? Good Old Fashioned Zombie Violence. Everything is a weapon and everyone is food.
Explosions? No. Sadly.
Nudity? Unless you're looking for it, you won't notice its not there.
