When a nativity play goes viral

Ellie Sergeant, now 29, caught the attention of more than just the church hall.

The nativity play has traditionally been a highlight of the Christmas. A video originally filmed in 1996 of one particular village church nativity has been viewed over two million times but for all the wrong reasons.

Today's Martha Kearney spoke to the star of the video, Ellie Sergeant, who played Angel Number 3 and gained attention for her loud singing during the performance.
