A TIKTOKER has been left flabbergasted after stumbling across a huge soap star and his daughter – while they were filming Celebrity Hunted.
Pork Pie enthusiast Charlie Betts – who goes under the name Chilli.97 – came across the former EastEnders actor and his sidekick while he was shooting his own footage.
Dad-and-daughter duo Brian Conley and Lucy were in the process of dodging hunters when they bumped into content creator Charlie Betts at Garsons Farm Shop in Hampshire.
The unaware shopper was left bemused after randomly coming face-to-face with the former soap star and his daughter.
Celeb contestants on the Channel 4 show attempt to evade detection while being tracked by an elite team comprised of the world’s best hunters.
Among them are serving and ex-police officers, alongside some of the UK’s top cyber experts.
Daughter Lucy asked pork pie reviewer Charlie: “Do you have a car? We’re on the run for Stand Up To Cancer. We’re been hunted by hunters.
“This is Brian Conley from the telly. I don’t know if you know, and I’m his daughter, Lucy. We really need it lift out of here or anyone to help us…”
The TikToker replied yes, but said: “We need to get a pork pie first.”
To camera, Brian laughed: “We are long gone, hunters… I know this is going to be such a red herring for them, yeah!”
Charlie wrote alongside the clip: “Glad to be of service.”
He concluded the video by writing: “Brian and Lucy didn’t have any food for the next part of their journey and they asked me for the pork pie off camera – I couldn’t say no.”
Fans commented: “Brian Conley is a national treasure.”
A second added: “Stand Up To Cancer Hunted whilst getting a pork pie… unreal.”
A third asked: “What the hell is going on here?”
Celebrity Hunted was thrown into chaos recently as Strictly dancers crashed a BBC star’s birthday with cameras in tow while trying to stay incognito.
Professional dancers Amy Dowden and Carlos Gu are among the famous duos in the latest series – which will air early next year.
The Sun revealed the pair ended up at a co-star’s birthday party while filming the Channel 4 series.
The star-studded show hit screens earlier this year and fans watched as Christine McGuinness and Blue singer Duncan James were crowned champions.
Love Island star Chris Taylor is also taking part in the next series, which will see him try to evade capture from the hunters and beat off competition from other celebrities.
As well as appearing on Love Island twice, Chris has also been on Celebs Go Dating.
Leon Wilson, CEO Shine TV & Zeppotron, previously teased: “Viewers are in for a treat with the Celebrity version, with an ace cast of new celeb fugitives raring to go on run.”
Meanwhile, it was confirmed earlier this year that the show’s civilian version would return for another outing.
TV favourite and panto extraordinaire Brian briefly lit up the Strictly dancefloor in 2017 and did a stint on I’m A Celeb in the 2012 series.
He starred alongside the likes of Helen Flanagan, Linda Robson and Charlie Brooks, who won that year.
