Aisling Bea appears on Jimmy Kimmel US chat show wearing just a dressing gown after airline disaster

Funnywoman Aisling Bea left viewers in stitches after she appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live wearing her dressing gown and slippers after her luggage was lost.

The actress and comedian arrived on set in her dressing robe and slippers after airline BA lost her luggage ahead of her interview with guest host Sean Hayes.

Sean asked the This Way Up writer if she thought the interview was over Zoom, to which she responded: "I wasn't sure if you'd notice, but I suppose I have to address it."

Bea explained the airline lost her luggage on the way here from London.

"I'd been travelling for 22 hours, and the thoughts of trying to find something...but luckily the hotel had this free dress just lying in the bathroom. I was like, I'll wear that," Bea says, before standing up to show off her slippers.

"I wasn't sure whether to go white with white, I was like, 'Aw, I'm not getting married,' but you know, big deal, it's Jimmy Kimmel, and they kind of like bring out the whites of my eyes."

"The bags are just gone."

Aisling spoke to the camera and gave a heartfelt plea for her missing luggage.

"Please, please just bring her home to me. We miss you, we love you, don't look in the back pocket."
