A "stubborn" cow on the Isle of Wight has gone viral on social media for pretending to be asleep to get out of being milked.

Doris is part of a 200-strong herd at Reads Farm near Newport.

Farmer John Brodie's TikTok video has attracted more than 1.5 million views.

John is heard in the video trying to coax Doris outside to be milked on a cold morning.

He said: "Doris is actually pretending to be asleep, she isn't really asleep."
