Countryfile viewers were shocked tonight when they witnessed an 'uncomfortable' pig sex scene.
Presenter Matt Baker had travelled to Yew Tree farm in Bristol to meet a pig breeder, who was 'passionate about her product'.
Matt explained Catherine Withers used to use an 'off-site breeder for her pigs, but breeding on-farm gave her more control over the final product'
Weighing in at a healthy 300kg wild boar Emperor was matched with pedigree pig Molly and it wasn't long before the two got down to business.
As proceedings started former Blue Peter presenter Matt asked politely: "Does he know his job?", to which Catherine replied: "He does, he's an experienced boar.
After the rather graphic sex scene, during which Catherine quipped "it's not always gentle to make bacon" viewers took to Twitter in their droves all saying the same thing about what they'd witnessed.
One wrote: "Pig porn is not what I expected when I put BBC1 on at 6pm. #Countryfile "
Another said: "Can’t believe I’m watching pig porn on a Sunday evening. And the size of his nads!! #countryfile "
A third wrote: "Blue Peter was never this graphic in my day! #countryfile "
While a fourth tweeted: " #countryfile pig porn on the TV and I'm trying to enjoy my pizza with ham on it.."
Once Emperor and Molly parted ways Matt quipped: "And that, I think, is job done".
