Shocking CCTV of a couple who had sex in a Domino's pizza store shows how they imitated sex acts with a traffic cone before embarking on the real thing.
In 12 minutes of footage from the takeaway, drunken Daniella Hirst and Craig Smith were seen moving from joking with each other, to kissing, then to oral sex, all just yards from staff working away to deal with orders.
The pair now face possible jail terms for outraging public decency over the incident in Scarborough.
The footage of their actions while waiting for a 12inch pepperoni pizza with stuffed crust was shown to a shocked jury at the town's magistrates court yesterday.
The video showed the couple ordering food and messing around with a yellow cleaning cone before Hirst performs oral sex on Smith, 31.
Hirst pleaded guilty to "committing an act outraging public decency by behaving in an indecent manner".
Smith, who was not in court because he was on remand in prison, was found guilty in his absence.
He was charged with grievous bodily harm with intent and two counts of assault in November 2015 after a fight outside a pub.
The prosecutor said: "We view this offence as so serious that it passes the custody threshold."
Hirst described her behaviour as 'horrendous' and told the court she 'cringed' when watching the CCTV footage back during police interview.
As she left the court, having changed out of her pink dungarees, she said she was 'fuming'.
North Yorkshire Police were made aware of the footage by the local media after it was posted on Twitter by a member of the Domino's staff.
The couple, from Bridlington, East Yorkshire, had spent the weekend drinking and celebrating Smith's birthday when they got the train to Scarborough on February 25 2016.
Prosecuting, Neil Holdsworth said: "This charge is committing an act outraging public decency by behaving in an indecent manner.
"This case is about an occasion where the two defendants engaged in sexual activity in a Domino's pizza outlet which was open to the public, with members of staff present."
Speaking after the video went viral in February, Hirst said: "I'm very opened-minded about sex and public places - I love the thrill you may get caught.
"But obviously I never thought we'd get caught like this and end up all over the internet."
