Robert Rinder rocked the red carpet just hours being taken to hospital for urgent surgery.
The telly judge, 44, told fans he'd suffered a prolapsed disc in his back as he shared a snap from his ward on Monday.
The criminal barrister dashed to hospital after presenting Good Morning Britain, but he looked the picture of health as he posed for the photos at The Reluctant Traveler premiere on Tuesday.
Larking around with comedian Alan Carr, 46, Robert cut a dapper figure wearing a tailored black shirt and trousers.
In one snap he kissed the Chatty Man star on the cheek as the pair looked happy to be in each other's company.
