Alan Carr has taken to Instagram to share a health update after he became ill during a show in Glasgow.
The chatty man collapsed in the middle of his set with onlookers thinking it was part of the act.
However it wasn't part of the gig at all with the comedian revealing he experienced shooting pains up his leg telling his followers it was the "worst cramp ever" as he rolled around on the floor.

After he posted a photo of a bag of peas on his leg to cool down the pain, the 46-year-old issued a full statement about what happened at the show. In a video posted to Instagram, he said he now has to rest after pushing through the show.
He explained: "There's a bit in my routine where I pretend to be Jason Statham and I high kicked then I got the worst cramp ever. It was shooting pains and I was rolling around on the floor and people thought it was part of the act.
"My lovely tour manager poked this crutch through the curtains. I had to finish the show. I think I've torn it, but hopefully, I'm going to have to rest. I put a very dramatic picture of me with some peas, but I'm fine. I just felt eggy and felt silly rolling around on the floor.
"But I'm fine, I'm fine but I've never felt pain like it! I will solider on like I always do."
People were quick to rush to the comments to offer the icon support with fellow comedian, John Bishop, writing: "What a trooper - you are an example to us all."
One said: "I was there tonight and glad you are ok, but you where brilliant and powered on. Best show laughing from start to end - not at you hurting yourself tho."
Another added: "You poor thing. Get it checked."
"That’s the best comedy show I’ve ever seen tonight and i’ve seen a lot!! Two hours of absolute bonkers stories and jokes - you’re a legend! I will never look at Celine Dion the same again, ever. Get well soon and less Karate kicks" wrote a third.
