Ted Lasso actor Brendan Hunt has revealed what he pinched from the set of the Apple TV+ show when it wrapped up.
The series, about an American coach who takes over a British football team, came to an end this week, which means that it's time for the people who starred in the show to admit to nicking the odd keepsake or two. It's tradition.
As part of Reddit 'Ask Me Anything', Coach Beard actor Brendan Hunt revealed: "I have a Beard costume, in case I need to play him at a charity event or something, as I did at Thundergong last year."

Hunt also dropped plenty of other interesting titbits during his AMA, including an explanation as to why Ted didn't attend Beard and Jane's wedding.
"There are a few reasons," he said. "The first is narrative: Ted just got on a plane and left the UK, it would be anticlimactic and deflating if we suddenly see him back there before we even see his plane lands.
"The other is that that's just the kind of friendship Ted and Beard have. Case in point is me and Joe Kelly, co-creator of Ted Lasso and one of the best friends I'll ever know. A few years ago I get an email from him and his fantastic girlfriend that they are getting married in LESS THAN A MONTH.
"The email clearly stated 'no worries if it's too short of notice' which was awfully nice of them; I desperately wanted to be there but I couldn't. They had scheduled to wedding the same day as a show I was doing in another city, if I recall correctly. So I missed the wedding, and guess what: no one cares! Our relationship is the exact same, our families live down the street from each other and we see each other all the time.

"So personally I think Beard called Ted and told him he could sit this one out, and Ted said thanks, because the ceremony conflicted with a big game for Henry's soccer team. The history of their relationship IMO is long periods of seeing each other and long periods not."
