A nursery teacher was forced to relocate a story time video for her young pupils after being left in stitches by the raunchy behaviour of the horses in the background.
With nursery staff and pupils stuck at home during the coronavirus lockdown, teacher Eloise Roberts has been creating videos and projects to keep the little ones busy and entertained.
When Eloise prepared to film herself reading another bedtime story, she decided to swap her usual backdrop of the living room sofa and take advantage of living at the horse riding school run by her partner Steph Smith.
Eloise roped in Steph to act as camera operator for her reading of Pop-Up Peekaboo! Unicorn in front of the field where horses Sarsons and Anakin live to provide a more exciting story time experience.
As the teacher begins reading about the character Cupcake flying through the forest and fluttering her beautiful wings, Eloise begins to giggle at the horseplay going on behind her.
But as Steph's camera pans to the floor, Eloise senses something is wrong and turns around to see Sarsons and Anakin choosing their moment for a bit of intimate time together.
It left the pair in hysterics as the reading came to an abrupt halt, and after two failed attempts to complete the book in front of the affectionate horses, they were forced to relocate to a different field.
With the outtakes too inappropriate to make the final cut, Eloise decided to share the hilarious video with friends and family on Facebook instead.
The 32-year-old, from Merseyside, said: "I was trying to do a little video for the kids, something different instead of being sat inside on the sofa, but the horses had other ideas.
"Anakin only got gelded last year so he still can be a bit frisky but I was still not expecting that.
"The whole time they'd been out in the field they hadn't been doing that then as soon as I started reading they started. They must have been bored of my story.
"I could see Steph laughing and I could hear that the horses were up to something behind me.
"I didn't want to stop reading to look but as I did I burst out laughing too. We tried to film it a second time but they just kept doing it. It was hilarious.
"Obviously I couldn't share it on the nursery page because it's not so appropriate for the kids but I decided to post it on my own Facebook and people have loved it.
"Everyone thinks it's hilarious and my friends have been messaging me to tell me they just keep watching it. Everyone needs a laugh at the moment."
