RYAN REYNOLDS and Rob McElhenney led the huge celebrations at Wrexham's promotion party.
The club hired out three open-top buses to parade through the streets of the town – and the Hollywood actor co-owners were on board.
And thousands of supporters turned out to join in the wild scenes.
But plenty of viewers were left baffled by the BBC's dedicated live coverage.
One said: "Well done to Wrexham. Not sure, though, how their victory parade is "Breaking News" on BBC News."
Another wrote: "Sorry. Great for Wrexham AFC but would National BBC 6pm news have live coverage of the parade without the celebrities? They are champions of Division 5."

Mullin, 28, told the Tubes & Ange Golf Life: "We went out, we went into a local bar!
"But when we got there it was just too packed, honestly, it was chaos – just people everywhere in the streets!
"So, we set off back from there to the stadium to all be together and spend a bit of time with each other.
