John Bishop and Damian Lewis have shared their experience after being stuck on a plane in France for six hours.
The comedian and actor travelled to Paris to watch LFC in the Champions League final in Paris on Saturday, May 28. John and Damian both shared a series of funny tweets after their flight was delayed for more than six hours.
The first tweet from Damian said; "With @johnbishop100 on our way home from Paris. Top lad. YNWA." The two men posed for a selfie together onboard the flight.

However, it was five hours later and the comedian and actor were still stuck on the plane and had not moved. John said: "I managed to get a seat on a club charter flight from Paris. This felt like a win when I got on with @lewis_damian. More than 5 hours later and we have not moved I wish I had got the train."
Another hour later and John and Damian's flight had still not set off, which meant it was delayed for six hours. Damian said: "Make that 6 hours me and @JohnBishop100 day two in the Big Brother House."
The actor, known for Homeland and Billions, then shared a funny picture of him and John together in the cockpit. He captioned the tweet: "S’alright @JohnBishop100 and me have had an idea."
In a previous post on Twitter, John condemned the actions of French authorities on Saturday, after football fans were met with organisational chaos, pepper spray and tear gas. He said: "At the gate in Paris - been here for 25 minutes and nobody has been allowed in - disgraceful treatment of fans who are displaying an unbelievable level of patience."
Upsetting images and video from Stade de France showed French police using pepper spray on supporters including young children and families. Despite thousands of fans arriving early and queuing for hours, many were not able to access the ground ahead of kick-off.
UEFA delayed the match by 36 minutes and in a public statement said the issues were due to "thousands of fans who had purchased fake tickets". UEFA's statement has been slammed by fans, journalists and pundits who attended the game. Liverpool FC also requested a formal investigation.
In a new statement, Merseyside Police officers deployed to work the match in Paris said the vast majority of fans behaved in an "exemplary manner".
