Binge watching sex and the city thanks to a horrendous cold.

The jukes and mimi viewing between Miranda and Robert is hilariously cringeworthy but also v v funny...

Oh Tom Hiddleston doing an impression of Robert de Nero in front of Robert de Nero on Graham norton made me want to climb inside myself i cant do the linky you tube sorry

CoolCarrie · 12/10/2016 12:31

That one was a cracker, MrsJayy. It put me right of TH after that, it went on & on & on...it wasn't funny or that good, it wasn't a classic de Niro line, from Taxi Driver! You could see de Niro was not impressed but was being polite in his way

Recently, Robbie Williams on Graham Norton telling a handjob story...I have to assume he is back on drugs for that to have seemed like a good idea.

Chris Eubank on Mrs Merton is an all time cringe classic.

Redwhiteorrose: That's a really funny one . Grin

I loved that RW story! I've always liked how RW has no filter and it's nice to see a celeb who isn't stage-managed within an inch of their life. I realise it was an inappropriate story and rude but it was hilarious!

that virgin wedding kiss 😳

Thecolonel I wonder how long Cliff had to practice on those skates, he looks a bit unsteady! Grin

OlennasWimple · 12/10/2016 13:38

I found the Paula Yates / Michael Hutchence interview both cringe but also an incredible example of lust love at first sight. It was only going to end up one way, wasn't it?

Even though it was intentional, David Brent dancing for a minute too long was completely cringe-inducing

maybethedayafter · 12/10/2016 13:41

This is one of those threads where you start off watching one of the links and before you know it you're watching a Japanese soap opera and trying to work out the plot.

TheColonelAdoresPuffins · 12/10/2016 14:20

Ha ha Amethyst. Unlike the green catsuit man who can skate backwards. I like it when he jumps onto the fountain and strides around confidently. The bit where he looms into the camera in the dark subway is a bit Halloween!

Amethyst81 · 12/10/2016 14:23

Yes loving the catsuits and his mullet, stylish!

Smidgenpigeon · 12/10/2016 14:30

Tara PT off her face on coke on the Frank Skinner show.

Dawn French getting stroppy with Paula Yates on Big Breakfast - bitching about how she is given tv jobs by her own husband.

Kerry Katona slurring on This Morning.

The Eidelweiss kid.

Meg Ryan on Parkie.

Another proposal where the couple hadn't been dating long and the tv presenter (can't remember programme) kept telling the poor girl to accept the guy's proposal and she obviously didn't want to - she kept saying she'd discuss it later...

Deal Or No Deal where the guy said he'd propose to his girlfriend if he won the jackpot. He won then refused to propose.

Any tv proposals, really...

EverySongbirdSays · 12/10/2016 14:32

Oh !

That Queens Jubilee thing with will.i.am and Stevie Wonder??

Doing Happy Birthday to you, and the camera suddenly flicked to Zara Philipps who was CRYING with laughter.

I found Britains Got The Pop Factor Peter Kay spoof a permanent cringe. Awful.

Also any time Richard Madeley got too interested/over involved during a "womens issues" item

WordsAreWind · 12/10/2016 14:32

Another MJ one.

This is the world music awards in '93. Boyz 2 Men are wearing a hideous suit/short combo which is cringworthy in itself.

Then you cut to MJ bopping around with a 13 year old Jordan Chandler sitting in between his legs on the same seat.

WordsAreWind · 12/10/2016 14:33

Shudders

AmysTiara · 12/10/2016 14:46

The inane chat between Xander and Richard on Pointless. I like them both but cannot watch the show without cringing.

EverySongbirdSays · 12/10/2016 14:49

Oh I love their chats! Particularly when Richard talks about how talented Ben Miller is

Smidgenpigeon · 12/10/2016 15:18

Child Genius when the poor French kid scored nil points

PuppyMonkey · 12/10/2016 15:31

Can't believe nobody has nominated the classic "Five Star, why are you so fucking crap?" phone-in on Going Live. Grin

midsomermurderess · 12/10/2016 15:32

Preston walking off a chat/game show when the host was being so rude and sneery and misogynistic towards his wife. It wasn't embarrassing that he walked off, it was shameful that the host did and said what he did. Simply appalling.

EverySongbirdSays · 12/10/2016 16:04

Many of you may not have seen it but the US equivalent of Child Genius is so bad so much worse than ours mostly Ryan's categorically abusive parents but also slightly Katherine's pushy ones and to a degree Graham's parents who are eager to ensure he denies evolution before answering Science questions.

ThatIsNachoCheese · 12/10/2016 16:15

Bloody hell, that kiss from Paul's mother on the sam fairs programme was so cringe.
I then went on to watch the programme and Paul is an utter tossface misogynistic bellend.

The kiss is just as cringe the second time you see it.

atomicpanda · 12/10/2016 16:16

Midsomermurdress are you Preston's Mum?

Maudlinmaud · 12/10/2016 16:26

Haha Mozfan1 I died!

Mozfan1 · 12/10/2016 16:40

maud whenever I watch that video I can feel the organs shrivel up
