What's the most WTF tv moment you have witnessed? 12/07/25 - 19:23

[ForFunAquaTurtle]

George Galloway pretending to be a car on cbb

So many! George Best hammered on Parkinson (?). Oliver Reed hammered on Parkinson (?) Mark Lamarr taking the piss out of MC Hammer on The Word 😱

Tommy Cooper dropping down dead.

Oh I forgot about that, I was very young at the time 😥

Loads from Celebrity Big Brother in the day but in particular : David’s Dead

Rylan Clark getting through on X Factor if you haven’t seen that.

(I went with lighthearted)

That was v sad about Tommy Cooper in a weird unbelievable way.

Does live radio Count?

Andrew Marr explaining that he called Jeremy Hunt a C earlier on , and somehow managing to repeat the words Jeremy C. And the rest of the guests partaking of an awkward 'I can't believe he just said that' again silence.

Ghostwatch
&
Brass eye Noel Edmonds/Clive Anderson

Watching smoke pour out of the WTC North Tower and then seeing another plane streaking onto the screen and disappearing.

I'm also old enough to remember 5 Star on Saturday Superstore (or similar) when someone rang in live and told them they were shite. See also Matt Bianco 😂

Ghostwatch, must have been 30 odd years ago and scared the shit out of me....Mr. Pipes. Wouldn't work nowadays

And me but I remember the shock. It was so strange and then how the adults reacted. All seemed a joke then it wasn't.

The closing ceremony of the 2012 Paralympics was pretty out there

Charles Kennedy, libdem mp, being drunk and slurring on question time, back when it was aired live

And him passing not too long after 🥺

Excitedly coming home from school to watch the Challenger space shuttle live launch, then watching it explode.

Watching the Hillsborough disaster start while the players were still on the pitch.

9/11

Channel 4 had a documentary about the porn industry, 1990s and a man made a woman have sex with him in his office to 'test' her out. I felt I'd watched a rape and complained to the channel.

..and as a very small child I remember the Vietnam war on the news..
