STILL Game star Greg Hemphill has had fans of the show in stitches with his response to criticism of the series finale.
The actor hit back at a viewer who said pretending the SSE Hydro was an airport was a "new low" for the hit show.
Seeing an opportunity to get some laughs, Hemphill - who created the show with Ford Kiernan - responded the disappointed viewer saying: "I wonder if he knows we pretend to be old guys?"

The Finnieston venue was used as a set for the entrance of chat show king Craig Ferguson, who featured in the final episode of series eight.
Still Game Live 2 was held at the Hydro last year.
Fans enjoyed the hilarious response, with some taking their opportunity to join in.
One users wrote: "Wonder if he thinks Finport in Series 5 was real too!", while another added "Aw naw, please tell me that Mick really does have a sea captains licence."
There should be a health and safety warning before Still Game starts. I thought I was going to die laughing last night. Note to self, do not eat or drink whilst watching Still Game. Choking hazard. 😂😂😂

Playing Isa's long lost friend, retired Hollywood stuntman Callum Coburn, Isa’s pulse was sent racing in the series finale as he returned to Craiglang.
