French presenter Doria Tillier fulfilled her promise to broadcast naked live on TV on Wednesday after France qualified for the World Cup.

Tillier boldly bet against her country after their 2-0 defeat to Ukraine in the first leg, and was left with no option after Didier Deschamps’ side fought back from two goals down to progress 3-2 on aggregate.

Millions of viewers had flocked to Canal+ to see if she kept her word, and the majority may have felt short-changed by what happened next.

Doria had initially said she would be 'a poil' – which translates to ‘naked’ in French - but in fact presented the weather from Poil, a village near to the French capital Paris.
