Oscars fans were full of praise for Matt Berry's unlikely stint as announcer during Sunday's ceremony, as they declared he needed to appear at 'every' awards show.
US fans were less likely to know the actor who was tasked with narrating the lengthy ceremony, but UK viewers shared their delight at hearing Matt's signature voice.
Matt, 51, is best known for starring in The IT Crowd, Toast Of London, The Mighty Boosh and Darkplace.
However, his star has risen in America thanks to his role in vampire comedy What We Do In Shadows.
During the ceremony, host Conan O'Brien introduced Matt to the star-studded audience, with the comedian taking on narrating duties from a studio in the UK.
Fans shared their delight at hearing Matt narrate the show, writing: 'I can't believe it took me as long as it did to realise Matt Berry was the Oscars announcer I'm such a fraud;
