An audience member said it was “incredible” to watch England win against Switzerland with James Corden, who delayed the start of his theatre performance on Saturday 6 July to watch the Euro 2024 quarter-final penalty shootout with the audience.

The Gavin and Stacey star brought out an iPad to watch penalties before the start of The Constituent, a new political play in which he is starring at The Old Vic in London.

Footage filmed by audience member Carla Feltham shows Corden propping up the iPad on a table on stage for the crowd and his co-star to see and narrated the action for the audience.
