James Nesbitt delighted guests at a Fermanagh hotel at the weekend when he jumped on stage for an impromptu gig.
The Coleraine actor had anything but cold feet as he blasted out his version of Teenage Kicks with local trio, The Davy K Project.
Guests at the plush four-star Knockninny Country House and Marina cheered in delight and disbelief as the TV star took the lead from singer Davy K for the performance of The Undertones hit.

James was in great voice and had the audience on their feet as he rocked out with the three-piece band.
The Bloodlands actor makes no secret of his love of singing. He was once spotted crooning along with Catherine Zeta Jones at a karaoke at a golf club in Wales and he regularly grabs the mic for a song when he ‘s hosting events.
And this isn’t James’s first performance of Teenage Kicks – he first performed it at The Spirt of Northern Ireland Awards in the Culloden Hotel last year, when he took to the stage with 80s-star Carole Decker from T’Pau and Northern Ireland rockers Ash.
Earlier this year it was announced that James (as Calligan) had been cast in Harlan Coben’s Missing You alongside Ashley Walters (Josh) and Matt Willis (Darryl). The show tells the story of detective Kat Donovan’s who finds her estranged fiancé on a dating app. This leads Kat to reopen the unsolved mystery surrounding her father’s murder.
