Actress Romola Garai stunned TV viewers on Sunday night by graphically detailing the recent birth of her baby as she prepared to hand over a trophy at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) TV Awards.
The Atonement star and her actor partner Sam Hoare became parents earlier this year, and Garai made a post-baby appearance at the prizegiving in London.
She took to the stage to announce the nominees for Best Male Performance in a Comedy Programme - and the 30 year old shocked the star-studded crowd by opening up about the arrival of her child.
Garai declared, "After the recent birth of my child, I had the misfortune of having 23 stitches in my vagina. So I didn't think I'd be laughing at anything for a long time - but tonight's nominees have proved me wrong."
Funnyman Steve Coogan won the prize for his role in Welcome to the Places of My Life.
