From technical trouble to reporters caught-in-the action, from awards show blunders to fist fights on set these are the Television moments that left producers red-faced and viewers stunned.
Expect the unexpected, as the people who were there recall television’s funniest and, sometimes, most jaw-dropping moments.
Judge Rinder suffers a rare lack of composure as his show is dogged by two frisky pooches. We unearth the moment a debate show got out of hand leaving host Anna Soubry to break up the fight. And a fire alarm on Ch4 news leaves presenter Krishnan Guru-Murthy making the headlines rather than reporting them. Also, Anthea Turner relives the horror of being set on fire in front of an audience of millions.
Comedian Bobby Davro opens up about his show when the laughter turned into horror. And journalist Michael Crick looks back at a cringeworthy encounter with an angry MP.
Plus there are live bloopers from shopping television, a Greek reporter finds himself at the receiving end of an amorous pig live on air, and in Spain, a paratrooper at a live parade suffers a humiliating pratfall in front of not only millions of viewers watching at home but the royal family who were at the event spectating. Awkward!
