Tina appeared during a fiery debate about the sale of late-night kebabs - where the the Mimi Maguire Channel 4 star argued they were contributing to the obesity crisis.

The Shameless favourite said: "As somebody who has always struggled with my weight having lost 12 stone and it's difficult in the current times we live in, the challenging times we live in.

"We all tend to look for different crutches.

"I think I am more likely to go in and get a sausage roll and the pasties - everything in moderation - if it's at the end of my road and its open at 12 at night.

"It's like everything - I'm 25 years sober, 10 years drug free but if you have an addictive personality, if something is tempting you the more likely you are, especially in these difficult times."

Fans were quick to react on Twitter, with one posting: "Wow I didn’t recognise Tina Malone! She looks incredible."

Another joked: "Now I want a Kebab. Talk about temptations."

A third then wrote: "Looked like she enjoyed them kebabs when she played mimi in Shameless though."

Tina was debating with a kebab shop owner who was eager to stress how healthy the snacks can be.

He told how the word kebab was simply a word to describe a cooking method, which means cooking over an open flame.

She has previously showed off her weight loss feat in a bikini as she soaked up the sunshine on a beach.

The actress has overhauled her body over the last few years, and is now showcasing the results.

She has dropped 12 stone since she started a major body overhaul and she has proved she is working hard to maintain her incredible size six figure.

Tina has undergone nine surgeries, as well as her gastric band, including operations to remove the excess skin which was left around her tummy due to her weight loss.

She also had skin removed from her arms, neck and thighs, as well as undergoing several surgeries on her face and fixing her teeth.

Tina has been showing off her svelte new look, but has admitted she still allows herself the odd treat despite being on a strict diet.

During an appearance on Loose Women, she said: “I eat spinach and fish every day…. but I do eat chocolate every day…”

She also revealed she burst into tears when she was first able to put on a size six dress.
