We'd be inclined to say that this is a waste of good ice cream, if not for the fact that, y'know, it's Meryl Streep. And you can't do things like this to MERYL STREEP, even if you're Reese Witherspoon.

Luckily, the drama between the two actresses was part of the next series of 'Big Little Lies', and it's also highly unlikely that Witherspoon pegged a gooey dessert at her co-star, as caught on camera while shooting in LA yesterday - but 'Meryl Streep's stand-in' doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

Nevertheless, it makes for some good pictures.

We can take it that their characters will experience a little tension in the next series of the award-winning show...
