Coleen Nolan joked that she “hasn’t been with a cop in a while” during a hilarious animal segment in Wednesday’s Loose Women.
The 57-year-old presenter took part in a short series on the daytime show in which the stars take part in an alternative career they’ve always dreamed of – and Coleen decided to spend a day as a vet.
As well as visiting an alpaca farm with The Yorkshire Vet’s Julian Norton, Coleen was taken to Elm House Farm to meet Mike and his cows.

Julian explained to her when they arrived that they had to do a pregnancy test on the heifers (female cows) and she exclaimed, “How on earth do you do a pregnancy test on a cow!? You’re not going to pee on a stick, are you!’
Julian then tested the cow and revealed the news that she was indeed not pregnant, saying: “She hasn’t been with a bull in a while so I know she isn’t.”
Coleen then quipped back as she laughed, “You and me both to be fair! A girl after my own heart. We could have a glass of wine with her and I.”

The hilarious segment comes after the Loose Women stars left Britain Get Singing viewers in tears as they won the show last Saturday night.
ITV daytime panellists Brenda Edwards, Denise Welch, Coleen and Linda Robinson took the stage on the Christmas Eve special to perform Simon and Garfunkel’s classic Bridge Over Troubled Water.
And after Brenda was shown on the show in tears as they rehearsed before their performance as the song reminded them of their late son Jamal, TV audiences gave the group a standing ovation after they sang, while viewers at home were moved to tears were You have been announced as the winner.

Shock: Julian explained to her when she arrived that they had to give a pregnancy test to the heifers (female cows), whereupon she exclaimed: “How on earth do you do a pregnancy test on a cow!? You’re not going to pee on a stick, are you!’
The ladies looked glamorous as they took the stage, each wearing silver sequined outfits that shone under the bright studio lights.
They competed against groups from some of Britain’s biggest television shows, including soap operas Emmerdale and Coronation Street, and reality series Love Island.
But it was the Loose Women who wowed judges Will.i.am, Alesha Dixon, Jason Manford and Adam Lambert and viewers alike.
Result: Julian then tested the cow and revealed the news that she was indeed not pregnant, saying: “She hasn’t been with a bull in a while so I know she isn’t.”
Funny: Coleen then quipped back as she laughed: “You and me both to be fair! A girl after my own heart. We could have a glass of wine, me and her.
One viewer tweeted: “Very emotional performance from Brenda and the ladies, brought tears to my eyes.”
While another viewer shared: “I don’t know how I expected my Christmas Eve to be but I didn’t sit in tears watching @loosewomen sing #BritainGetSinging.”
“What an amazing show, Corrie and Emmerdale were amazing but the loose women omg they broke me. Fabulous performance,” another viewer posted.
Before taking the stage, the Loose Women were seen rehearsing the song when Brenda collapsed, prompting her co-stars to comfort her.
Her son, music entrepreneur Jamal, died in February aged 31 of a heart attack after drinking cocaine and alcohol at his home in west London.
Brenda was joined on piano by Denise, Coleen and Linda to practice the song in support of the Get Britain Talking mental health campaign.
She justified the song choice by saying: “My whole family sings it in church, so it’s very touching for me.

“I was a little upset when my son died earlier this year and everything is a trigger. I am so thankful to have the ladies around me as a unit.”
The one-off ITV show aired footage of the stars speaking about their own mental health experiences before taking the stage.
Jamal died of cardiac arrest after a late night cocaine and drinking session during which he became paranoid and began throwing objects around the room before falling unconscious, an inquest found in August.
