But he was in a chipper mood and took the comedian’s ribbing in his stride at the filming, where he sat in the audience.

Murray posted a message for his 623,000 fans on his Facebook page
saying: “Went to watch Mock the Week being filmed last night, so funny…”

One picture shows Murray standing amongst comedians on the show, including host Dara Obrien and Chris Addison.

Posting another picture of himself chortling in the audience, he
added: “They didn’t pick on me that much either, haha.

“It’s on tomorrow night on BBC2 one, get involved…”

Murray’s loss to Federer at the Wimbeldon man’s final was watched by a full third of all people in Scotland.
