WATCH: AMANDA HOLDEN'S SEXUAL INNUENDO ON THIS MORNING

Phillip Schofield's face is a picture, isn't it?

WATCH: BBC WEATHERMAN CAUGHT GIVING EVERYONE THE FINGER

The poor guy never realised the camera was about to cut to him at that moment… but it did.

And he got caught red-handed. or, y'know, red fingered:

We're guessing that didn't go down too well with viewers OR bosses, but that's just us...

WATCH: MADONNA FALLS OFF THE BRITS 2015 STAGE

Oh Madonna - this moment will go down in music history...

At least she picked herself back up again, eh?

In one of the most bizarre celeb fueds in recent reality TV history, Katie Price and Chris Hughes had an epic bust up last year culminating in KP threatening to expose screenshots of flirty texts.It all started with some harmless flirting, but then Katie denied Chris' claims she had sent him some saucy messages. He then named and shamed her on Twitter and posted messages she had sent him on Instagram and WhatsApp.Just when we thought all the drama was over the mum-of-five warned the reality star at her show An Audience With, she said: "Some celebrities should be careful with what they say and not out people."It will come back and bite them on the bum. Do you know what I mean?"

WATCH: CHERYL FERNANDEZ-VERSINI SUFFERS AN AUTO-CUE FAIL ON STAND UP 2 LIVE

If you're going to pretend to sing live, at least make sure someone turns the volume up on the auto-cue…

One thing's for sure, however; that Chezza sure can dance like an absolute pro!

WATCH: TERRY WOGAN ANNOUNCES WRONG EUROVISION WINNER

Yup, good old Terry Wogan had trouble (ahem) making his mind up when it ams to revealing which of the UK's two Eurovision entries would be going through to sing in the continental talent show.

Is it Cindy? Or Scooch? Nobody knows.

Check out the horror below:

Poor Cindy. We wonder if she would have fared better if she HAD gone through to the final…?

WATCH: BRADLEY WALSH LOSES IT OVER A GERMAN NAME

The name? Fanny Schmeller.

The result? Bradley Walsh in stitches for a good few minutes of our lives.

So immature - but, if we're completely honest, we were giggling right along with him.

WATCH: HOLLY WILLOUGHBY MISSES HER MOUTH ON THIS MORNING

What do you get when you combine a beautiful clean white top and red sauce?

Yup, you know it…

Never mind Holly - you still looked beautiful as ever!

WATCH: KATY PERRY'S STAGE DIVE FAIL

We all know how stage dives are SUPPOSED to go - and it isn't like this...

Oh Katy - such handstand skills shouldn't go wasted!

WATCH: SCOTT MASLEN HAS A MINI ON-SCREEN MELTDOWN

Let's look back at the live episode they put out for the 25th anniversary of EastEnders - and the awkward moment that Scott Maslen (aka Jack Branning) lost his cool in a very big way.

What was that again? Something about a motive?

Whatever; the others held their own, didn't they? And it all kind of made sense - after all, what uncle wouldn't be stressed about his nephew going down for murder?

WATCH: GINO D'ACAMPO INSISTS HOLLY WILLOUGHBY IS 'UP THE FLUFF'

And Phillip Schoefield and Holly Willoughby just couldn't contain their giggles.

Check it out:

Bless him - so close, yet so far!

WATCH: KANYE WEST DOESN'T LET TAYLOR SWIFT FINISH

All Taylor wanted to do was collect her award, make her speech, and go and celebrate. But Kanye West had other ideas...

Bloody hell, Kanye!

WATCH: JAKE WOOD TRIES - AND FAILS - TO MAKE HIMSELF SICK

It would definitely turn your stomach seeing your son lying dead in the street… but Jake Wood was filmed popping his fingers down his throat to give himself a little helping hand.

Oh dear, Max Branning.

WATCH: BRADLEY BRANNING MOVES HIS HAND… WHEN HE'S MEANT TO BE DEAD

Poor Bradley - nobody even checked him for a pulse, after all.

Maybe there was still time to save the poor dear…

WATCH: GINO D'ACAMPO DEMANDS 'ONE SH*T' FROM HIS VIEWERS

Obviously he meant sheet. SHEET. But, y'know, he has a delightful Italian accent and things get muddled sometimes… much to Holly and Phil's delight!

We were giggling right there along with them.

WATCH: KRIS JENNER BOT STOPS WORKING ON THE NTAs 2015

It was, effectively, like a robot just stopped functioning right up there on the stage.

And nobody could stop it from happening...

Sometimes it's better to say, y'know, ANYTHING rather than absolutely nothing. But that's just us.

WATCH: DID ABI BRANNING KILL LUCY?

Nobody seemed to know - least of all her own dad.

To be fair, it's understandable he was confused; after all, it was actually little Bobby Beale that bumped off the lettings agent, not Abi.

WATCH: JANET JACKSON'S WARDROBE MALFUNCTION AT THE SUPER BOWL

This one needs no introduction, really...

Oh very dear.

WATCH: SIMON COWELL GETS EGGED ON BRITAIN"S GOT TALENT

Poor Simon was left with egg on his face - literally - when a woman broke onto the stage and started hurling eggs at him during a Britain's Got Talent performance.

It all kicks off around 1.50…

Poor Simon. Poor Richard and Adam. This is just such a sorry state of affairs, eh?

WATCH: SUSANNA REID MAKES SEXUAL SLIP OF THE TONGUE

This one seems to slip by unnoticed by Susanna Reid's co-presenter… but the viewers were quick to pick up on it:

Dear god.

WATCH: SAM AND KIRK MISS THEIR CUE ON TOWIE LIVE

Considering it's meant to be a reality show, this kind of ruined the illusion somewhat...

It's all a lie, people. IT'S ALL A LIE!!!

WATCH: DEC STACKS IT ON I'M A CELEBRITY

But, thankfully for Dec, he had his faithful Ant beside him to help him out.

"YOU'RE ALL GETTING SUED!"

We bloody love these two so much.

WATCH: JENNIFER LAWRENCE FALLS DOWN AT THE OSCARS

Jennifer Lawrence looked the epitome of beauty and grace at the Oscars - until this happened...

She styled it out magnificently though, didn't she? God, we love J-Law.

WATCH: HARRY STYLES GOES TO THE LOO AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME

It was a very tense moment when Harry Styles appeared to have rejected his bandmates - and his award - at The Brits...

Luckily he'd just popped to the loo. This is why you should ALWAYS GO BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE HOUSE, Harry!

WATCH: STREAKER TROLLS RONNIE WOOD ON JOOLS HOLLAND

What do you do when a streaker rushes the stage and interrupts your performance?

Loudly exclaim the immortal words "what a huge knob!" of course.

WATCH: JO JOYNER FLUFFS HER LINES ON EASTENDERS

Two words; How's Adam?

In comparison to all the rest of these TV gaffes, it really wasn't all that big a deal, Jo - honest!
