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...

I love Simon Amstell

And thought Preston's tantrum was highly amusing

Kelly Brook on Big Breakfast repeatedly calling Tamzin Outhwaite Tasmin and being endlessly corrected

Kelly on BB generally to be fair

Oh god, I'd forgotten all about that MJ clip. The camera man clearly felt (or indeed the editor) that this was just plain wrong as it keeps cutting back to him thrusting his hips in that chair. Poor kid. Ugh.

Oh poor Cara Tonald they were total wankers! "You look tired" - WTF how dare you Cara Delvigne is gorgeous!! I love that she didn't take their shit.

Also the moment Dannie Minogue alludes to a contestant's alleged sexuality on X Factor, I lost all respect for her after that

Bowie who did Chantelle (preston's wife) look like? I can't for the life of me remember.

PinkyOfPie · 12/10/2016 22:12

Paris Hilton user I thinj

Ah yes pinky thank you! I could picture her in my head but still couldn't think who her lookalike was.

This thread is awesome awkwardly placemarking 😁

What about when Gavin Henson was on Sports Personality, and Sue Barker told him he'd have performed better if he'd 'spent less time going in and out of Church' Grim.

And Len Goodman referring to Colin Jackson as a "fairy" on Strictly

Remember Noel Edmunds on Deal or No Deal, hooting with laughter at a woman contestant's photo of her as a child with her brothers? She said "What are you laughing at?" And he pointed to the grinning little boy in the middle and said "That one!" She went on to tell him the boy was handicapped, and Noel, absolutely mortified quickly said "Gorgeous face.....gorgeous smile...."

Not sure if this has been posted before, but Boyzone's first appearance on the Late Late Show in Ireland. They did a dance Blush.

(the dance starts around 1:45)

Clawdy

Noooooo Kinell

Blind Date back in the 80s when the female contestant picked the bloke who'd brought the Sooty glove puppet. He waffled it over the top of the screen at her and she nearly ran off stage!

pictish · 12/10/2016 23:22

Oh Leax that's one of my favourites! Hahaaaa...dicks! Grin

Haudyerwheesht · 12/10/2016 23:23

I genuinely don't watch TOWIE but whenever I've seen clips that guy 'Arg' just makes me want to die with embarrassment. He seems to just want to cool and just isn't.

Capricorn76 · 12/10/2016 23:31

The worst was on a Saturday kids show when the host asked Mel B which song she couldn't stand and she starts slagging off Glen Maderios and the host looks at her awkwardly and she realises what's about to happen and Glen Maderios walks out on to the stage from behind a curtain looking quite hurt. It was mortifying.

Chocwocdoodah · 13/10/2016 00:02

Oooh I love this thread!

That footballer (Joe Barton??) slipping into a weird french accent during a press conference in France. Amazing.

Gingernaut · 13/10/2016 00:17

Richard and Judy doing an 'interview' with Richard as Ali G.

Judy can barely look at him

Don't Tell The Bride when the dress is revealed and the bride hates it and throws a wobbly! I cringe when the friends and family are all just standing around awkwardly while a supposedly grown woman throws a hissy fit.

Every time Katie Hopkins opens her mouth.

EverySongbirdSays · 13/10/2016 00:49

I haven't seen much of DTTB BUT

The one where the groom based the ceremony only on his likes etc but the cake was a COLIN THE CATERPILLAR FROM M AND S Grin

Redglitter · 13/10/2016 00:52

That idiot Bradley Walsh collapsing in laughter anytime anything remotely 'rude' comes up in a question. He has the mentality of a bloody 6 year old.

notfeelinguptothis · 13/10/2016 01:11

Years ago there was a short-lived family gameshow which I can remember nothing about except they used to have a different covers/lookalike band on each week to play a couple of songs between games. The first week was a The Doors tribute band and the first song they played was Light My Fire. The keyboard player messed up the little solo before each verse EVERY TIME!

They played a couple more songs during the show and the keyboard player kept messing up, though not as badly. I can still remember the singer glaring at him through the last song!

DailyFaily · 13/10/2016 01:47

Any of the Graham Norton shows where Miriam Gargoyles was an interviewee, but especially the one where she is sitting next to Matthew Perry and describes the moment where she saw Laurence Olivier and she started 'creaming in her knickers', MP's face is beyond uncomfortable!
