They later tweeted it was "good fun".

The BBC analysed NHS data and found that nationally more than five million patients in England are unable to book an appointment with a GP out of normal working hours.

East Riding Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) says GP practices which currently offer extended hours do so under an "enhanced service" offer.

The CCG has recently completed a procurement process for an extended access service which will be available for all patients across East Yorkshire.
