A Sinn Féin TD has been interrupted in the Dáil - by his own necktie.
Aengus Ó Snodaigh was trying to raise concern about asbestos within the Leinster House complex.
He began his comments by wishing everyone else in the chamber a happy Christmas.
But his contribution was then interrupted - after his special Christmas tie burst into song:
