"Michael Sheen is the greatest actor of our age because no other man could so perfectly capture the relief of taking of your bra after a long day as he did in the scene when his wings released in #GoodOmens," a fan wrote.
Without skipping a beat, Sheen gave a typically stirring performance, gripping the audience with an incredibly passionate and rousing speech, which drew a raucous round of applause from the all-English panel of contestants, including pundits Jamie Redknapp and Micah Richards and comedians Emily Atack and Alex Brooker, as well as Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale.
Michael Sheen's speech in full:
"Yma o hyd, yma o hyd,
I hear the voices singing,
Speed your journey, bois bach,
One nation, singing with one voice,
A song of hope, a song of courage,
A victory song that floats through the valleys, like a red mist,
"Rolls over the mountain tops, like crimson thunder,
A red storm is coming to the gates of Qatar,
It crackles, with the spirit of '58 and Jimmy Murphy's boys,
It turns the pages of the history books,
And finds Rob's page, waiting, still to be written,
"What would you right in there, boys?
Dare you write your names on that page?
We haven't waited 64 years and come half way around the world,
To be troubled by a neighbour from back home,
When the English coming knock on our door,
"Let's give them some sugar, boys, let's give them some Welsh sugar,
They've always said we are too small, we are too slow, we are too weak, too full of fear,
But yma o hyd, you sons of Speed,
And they fall around us,
We are still here."
"Absolutely electric oratory from Michael Sheen. I could walk through fire for him right now," another fan wrote.
