The ripped-from-the-headlines re-enactment is based on court transcripts from the legal battle between Rebekah Vardy and Coleen Rooney.

However, a number of ITV viewers have been seriously distracted from the action tonight and taking to Twitter.

The actor playing football star Wayne, 37, was seen sitting behind the stand in one of the tense scenes.

The star's face was visible as he reacted to the ongoing court case - based on real life events earlier this year.

However, as fans got a closer look at the star, they flooded Twitter to complain that he looks "nothing like" Wayne.

One wrote: "The casting director, must have never seen Wayne Rooney?" as another said: "He looks nothing like Wayne?"

A third added: "Wayne Rooney looks nothing like Wayne Rooney," as a fourth added: "The actor they've cast to play Wayne Rooney though?"

A fifth concluded: "How is the lad playing Wayne Rooney not Scouse at least. Weird decision by the casting directors."

It comes after Channel 4's Vardy V Rooney 'switched off' within minutes off the 'Wagatha Christie' show.

Many turned it off early into the first part of the two-part special, which airs over the next two nights, branding it "tosh".

And several also had the same complaint about actress Chanel Cresswell's Scouse accent as she took on the iconic WAG.

One fan on Twitter vented: "Lasted 14 mins. Absolutely sh***", as another hit out that it was "just awful".

Others agreed it was "so bad" but claimed it was so compulsively awful, they "couldn't turn it off."

One viewer from the area tweeted: "Vardy v Rooney Lasted 3 seconds hearing that awful attempt at a Scouse accent….

Another fumed: "Why is it so hard to hire Scouse actors to play Scousers? Rare you can find someone who can do a successful accent"
