A hapless presenter was the subject of an early April Fools’ Day prank at Manchester City.
CityTV reporter Nicola McCarthy thought she was doing a regular interview with injured midfielder Fabian Delph.
But her crew were actually conspiring with the footballer to prank her.
Delph was instructed to have a hissy fit about a straightforward injury question and flounce out in a huff.
The England footballer won’t be winning an Oscar anytime soon - but he was convincing enough to give the presenter a very anxious few minutes before revealing the truth.
