Production on NBC's Medium had to be temporarily halted recently when Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno creation gatecrashed the set.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Cohen, in character as his camp Austrian fashion reporter, began to interrupt a dramatic courtroom scene while appearing as an extra in the jury box.

Security promptly removed Cohen from the set, with an insider commenting: "No one had a clue it was Sacha playing Bruno. It's amazing he was able to infiltrate the set and pull this off."

Cohen has been travelling the globe filming Bruno, his follow-up to 2006's comedy Borat.
