ITV viewers have slammed the channel for airing 'woke' and 'hypocritical' celebrity messages during the National Lottery New Year's Eve Big Bash on Sunday.
The programme, hosted by Alesha Dixon and Jason Manford, featured a number of performances from Busted, Take That and Becky Hill.
But some were not happy after a special two-minute clip was played in which several stars spoke about the dangers of climate change.
The video contained messages from Idris Elba and Olivia Colman with Hollywood actress Glenn Close speak about the need for urgent action to save our planet.
Several ITV viewers were less than impressed, claiming New Year's Eve was not the time for 'woke' messages, or for being 'lectured' by wealthy jet-setting celebrities.

Elsewhere during the evening, Paloma Faith and Becky Hill gave incredible performances as they led the musical guests at the event at OVO Arena Wembley.

The 42-year-old singer, who normally has long blonde hair, recently dyed it fiery red for British Vogue's Forces For Change party two weeks earlier before chopping it off.
She looked incredible with her latest voluminous hairstyle as she donned a glamorous red satin dress.
Meanwhile, Becky Hill put on a very leggy show as she danced around the stage in a pair of black leather thigh-high boots.
The 29-year-old Better Of Without You singer looked stunning as she paired the shoes with a matching shirt dress.
She appeared in good spirits as she performed in front of an audience of more than 10,000 people at the event filmed on December 6.
Elsewhere Take That performed their iconic song Never Forget along with their title track This Life from their critically acclaimed 9th studio album.
Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen dressed down as they raised their arms in the air as the crowd sang and danced along.
Jax Jones looked cool in a green fur hat, while Calum Scott wore a yellow suit as they put on an energetic show together.
Jax was seen flying across the stage as some dancers performed a routine on stage.

James Bourne, Matt Willis and Charlie Simpson from the English band Busted were also present during the packed entertainment show.
Matt looked handsome in a plain white cardigan and black suit, teamed with a pair of quirky white and black loafers decorated with lobsters.
Charlie wore a black and white fashion forward jacket with dark wide trousers and trainers.
James opted for a more casual look, wearing a blue zip-up fleece and trainers, with red basketball shorts, despite the cold weather.
It comes after Shirley Ballas and Charlotte Hawkins stood out from the crowd when they joined a host of stars on the red carpet for the Big Bash earlier this month.
