Miriam Margolyes was left so embarrassed after This Morning showed her farting today.
The Harry Potter actress was on the ITV daytime show to promote her new TV show In Search of the American Dream - and a promo clip was played before her interview.
In one bit of the trailer, Miriam was seen farting.
But when it cut back to her in the This Morning studio, she was shocked.

She said: "I'm just so embarrassed that they put the fart in the programme.
"I haven't seen the programme, no. I'm shocked that they put that on.
"That's embarrassing."
Phillip Schofield laughed, saying: "It's going to be on the show anyway, it's going to be on telly.
"You've got a camera in front of you, try and keep it in."

Miriam reassured: "I promise I will, I'm alright at the moment."
In her new TV show, Miriam travels around America meeting people and discovering what the country is like now that President Donald Trump is in charge.
But she confessed she made some of the people she met "feel uncomfortable".
Phil took the opportunity to blame it on her farting, but she said: "I don't know if it was that. I didn't fart everywhere, come on – I know how to behave."

She finished the interview by accusing Phillip of taking drugs.
She quipped: "I'm always scared of drugs, I've never taken a drug stronger than aspirin – I bet you can't say that."
The embarrassed presenter replied: "She says that with only four seconds to go."
*This Morning continues on ITV1 weekdays at 10.30am

Any TV appearance from Miriam Margolyes is going to provide some hilarious moments.
And her visit to the This Morning studios was no different.
The Harry Potter actress dropped by This Morning with Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield to promote her upcoming show Miriam’s Big American Adventure, in which she road tripped across the States in search of the American dream.
On her journey, she met people from all walks of life, who she has stayed friends with after the show.

And while describing some of the friends she met along the way, Miriam managed to accuse Phil of using drugs.
Standard This Morning antics, right?
The 76-year-old said: ‘I will go back, and the wonderful thing for me is that I’ve remained friends with nearly all the people I met on the programme. Even though they came from different backgrounds, criminals, druggies…
‘I’m always scared of drugs, I’ve never taken a drug stronger than aspirin.’
She then looked at Phil and said: ‘I bet you can’t say that!’
As Holly laughed, Phil tried to keep a straight face and said: ‘She says that with four seconds to go.’
Miriam said: ‘No, you’re clean’ – so Phil isn’t in any trouble.
The actress’s show Miriam’s Big American Adventure will air on BBC One at 9pm on Wednesday.
