MICHAEL McIntyre's Big Show viewers spotted a "dangerous" moment in last night's episode and are urging bosses to "call the police".

Host Michael travelled to Birmingham in the episode for his Wheel on Wheels segment in a bid to find people watching his primetime game show The Wheel.

He crept up on one house to see if he could see his face on-screen but instead they were playing videogames.

Michael then stopped to chat with a passing car and lightly ribbed their choice of supermarket-bought pizzas.

As he continued on his journey, another car slowed as it passed, and Michael spotted the driver filming him on their phone from behind the wheel.

The comedian shouted: "You can't be filming behind the wheel!"

Under UK law, using a phone while driving is a £200 fine and six points on a driving licence.

One eagle-eyed fan wrote: "Surely the BBC, who masked the driver's registration, should send the footage to the police."

Eventually, Michael stumbled across Lime Pickle Indian takeaway which had The Wheel on.

Michael stepped inside and offered to work a shift as his team set up hidden cameras.

He then surprised punters when they turned up to collect their dinner, giving them much more than they bargained for.

The funnyman got them to play along with the action on screen in a bid to win prizes.

The Sun has contacted the BBC for comment.
