Terrible<br />
Right look, I’m going<br />
to level with you, I don’t<br />
watch that much t.v, in fact<br />
I watch next to none, what<br />
with my aerial being broke<br />
and every time I turn my<br />
tv on to play ps4 I have to<br />
manually stop my tv from<br />
searching for analogue<br />
channels each time.<br />
So with this in mind you<br />
may find yourself asking<br />
“who do you think you<br />
are, thinking you’re all big<br />
and that making lists?”.<br />
Saying this though, have<br />
you ever sat on a Saturday<br />
night, perhaps a few<br />
days before pay day with<br />
a frozen pizza flicking<br />
mindlessly through the<br />
channels because there’s<br />
adverts on during yet<br />
another rerun of Top<br />
Gear on Dave and ended<br />
up watching X Factor or<br />
Britain’s Got Talent?<br />
Then you see something<br />
happen and think “What<br />
the hell is going on here”<br />
and find it mildly funny<br />
but realise Top Gear is<br />
back on and change back<br />
to it.<br />
Wait, forget all of that,<br />
back to what I’m actually<br />
doing here.<br />
I’m looking at the worst<br />
of tv so that’s basically Big<br />
Brother, news gaffes, X<br />
factor and Jeremy Kyle…<br />
guests.<br />
You know things that<br />
you see and think ‘what<br />
the hell were they doing,<br />
or thinking and should<br />
they seek help?’<br />
Christian Arcabowicz has trawled through the archives to bring you the best<br />
and worst moments of reality TV fails<br />
BBC, Great British Bake off<br />
First on our list is BinGate,<br />
quite literally the worst scandal<br />
to ever strike the nation -<br />
Britain’s WaterGate - just<br />
without a president resigning,<br />
10<br />
but almost as bad. The poor<br />
man had his space in fridge<br />
nicked and his Baked Alaska<br />
melted.<br />
Horrifying!<br />
This one’s quite cruel<br />
actually. Natalie Kills<br />
(pictured right) had<br />
a go at contestant<br />
Marcus Dibble about<br />
his dress sense. Yet<br />
the poor man only<br />
had a generic haircut,<br />
wore a generic suit and<br />
sung a generic song,<br />
yet he disgustingly<br />
stole a generic man’s<br />
style, (Willy Moon)<br />
as Natalie his almost<br />
famous wife pointed<br />
out in generic New<br />
Zealand X-factor<br />
style. She was then<br />
generically fired<br />
for it, along with<br />
her husband. Pretty<br />
generically shocking.<br />
New<br />
Zealand<br />
X-Factor<br />
channel 3<br />

BBC,<br />
Jonathan<br />
Charles<br />
I feel like this one should be more<br />
of a lesson for most of us rather<br />
than something to be laughed at.<br />
A simple pause, a simple breath<br />
is all that was needed from<br />
Jonathan Charles when he read his<br />
introduction from the autocue.<br />
He managed to combine his own<br />
name with the first story informing<br />
the audience thta he ‘had kept<br />
himself hidden for almost two<br />
decades.’<br />
A bizarre claim for a news<br />
reader.<br />
