An ex porn star is running to be mayor of a tiny remote village in Spain just six years after quitting the adult industry.
Antonio Moreno – better known to adult movie fans as Hector de Silva – said he is alarmed by a plummeting population count in Carcelén, in the autonomous community of Castile-La Mancha.
Moreno moved to the 652-person village after giving up porn six years ago and after a stint as a forest firefighter, has become a farmer.

Antonio, who is representing the conservative Spanish People's Party, told local media: "I made no secret of my past when I came here.
"Everybody knew what I have been doing and in any case, that is now in the past. Although it is not a secret."
He added: "When the PP came to me with the suggestion I agreed, but I want to put together my own team for the campaign and chose people regardless of their political beliefs.
"By creating a group who are not worried about politics, we will be able to carry out projects for the people."
He said he quite simply wants to focus on "making Carcelén a better town."

Moreno added that "it is not necessary" to allude to his past in the electoral campaign.
"Our town has about 500 inhabitants, it is part of the so-called emptied Spain, we have a lot of older people and we need projects to improve the quality of life," he said.
Moreno will team up with a rag tag group of locals who have never worked in politics before.
"When the PP gave me the opportunity to lead this project, I told them that I had no problem, but that I wanted to do it with a group of people who would never have had anything to do with politics," he explained.
