Channel 4 viewers were left rather surprised on Tuesday night as they settled down to watch The Man With a Penis on His Arm.
The candid documentary followed the life of Malcolm MacDonald, 47, who had a phalloplasty penis grafted on his arm for the past six years due to his actual penis falling off.
But fans were left even more gobsmacked when they saw that he used his penis to hold darts when playing one of his favourite sporting games.
Jumping onto Twitter, fans were quick to share their reaction.
One viewer said: “Clearly a very handy accessory for holding your darts..”
Another said: “I know I shouldn’t laugh but jfc his arm knob was dangling on the hob and holding his darts.”
While a third shared a picture of Malcolm’s arm and penned: “Just a man holding his darts with the penis on his arm.”
Malcolm was living with a penis attached to his arms for six years.
While living rough, Malcolm suffered from a dreadful infection that caused his penis to turn black and to fall off in the toilet as a result.

Medical surgeons did manage to save Malcolm’s penis but due to low oxygen levels, they had to graft it onto his arm rather than its original region.
Due to delays and the coronavirus pandemic which caused further setbacks, Malcolm had a long and painful wait to have his member attached back to his groin.
Speaking about his ordeal candidly during the show, he said: “Can you imagine six years of your life with a penis swinging on your arm?
“It’s been a nightmare, but it’s gone now — the little b****r.’ The worst thing is when you cuddle your nan at Christmas and it hits her in the eye.”
However, hopes his life can now turn around after a successful nine-hour operation which saw his member reattached between his legs.
Following his operation, Malcom said: “The first thing I did was look down and I was like, ‘Oh my days. They got it this time’.
“I feel like a real man again.”
Malcolm’s intriguing story is one of three in the documentary about men who have either had phalloplasty or were waiting to have due to various reasons.
