PETER Kay left Strictly Come Dancing viewers in hysterics tonight after he hijacked Claudia Winkleman's moment on camera.

The funnyman was in the audience at Blackpool's Tower Ballroom and was invited up to the Clauditorium to read out the terms and conditions for the presenter.

But Peter being Peter, he quickly went off script, and started promoting his own stand up tour, which goes on sale tomorrow morning.

Peter reminded people it was his first new tour in eight years, and Claudia had to work hard to get Peter back on track and finish reading out the important information regarding voting.

At the end, the cheeky star then read out Claudia's next line, saying: "Claudia, thank you Peter...Tess!" before the cameras returned to host Tess Daly.

Viewers took to Twitter to discuss Peter's appearance, which was the second time he has been on the Blackpool show, with one writing: "'Claudia, thank you Peter...Tess!' Peter Kay is hilarious! #Strictly".

Another added: "'For terms and conditions (and the tickets for the Peter Kay tour go on sale tomorrow, by the way) go to bbc.co.uk/strictly' Hilarious!"

A third agreed, writing: "I love #Strictly so much. Peter Kay was brilliant giving out the Ts and Cs very funny!"

Another tweeted: "Love how #PeterKay pops up in the tower ballroom every year haha".

A fellow viewer added: "#Strictly #PeterKay #Blackpool! These are a few of my favourite things!"

Peter's appearance on the show comes a day after he revealed on Children in Need that his popular show Car Share would be returning for a series finale after all.

Fans were left bereft back in May when the show ended on a cliffhanger between his character John and his co-star Kayleigh, played by Sian Gibson.

Peter insisted there wouldn't be any more episodes - not even a Christmas Special - but on last night's TV fundraiser, he revealed there would be after all.

He said: "Well it's been a very hard secret to keep."

Sian added: "I'm glad it's out in the open" to which Peter replied he was too.

He continued: "We were getting constant abuse about it, people were very angry that the series ended in that way, but there is a season finale explaining what happened the next day after the big argument."
