John Bishop and Damian Lewis attempt to 'fly' plane themselves after six hour delay

Comedian John Bishop and actor Damian Lewis entered the cockpit of their heavily delayed plane on Saturday night - pretending to try and fly it themselves amid their frustrations.

The pair were more than six hours late departing France after watching Liverpool lose to Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League final.

"I managed to get a seat on a club charter flight from Paris. This felt like a win when I got on with Damian Lewis. More than 5 hours later and we have not moved. I wish I had got the train #crapweekend," Bishop said in a tweet.
