Although it’s been in the news for a different reason lately, ITV’s This Morning has a reputation for being among the most casually unhinged shows on the British television landscape, making this prude nation collectively choke on its tea at least once a week. Perhaps it’s the nature of live TV, but nothing seems to be off limits on This Morning, with Holly and Phil just as likely to be whipping up some breakfast burritos as they are discussing KY jelly with an octogenarian. Here’s our round up of the most unforgettable This Morning moments…

6. If my grandmother had wheels…

Whatever you do, don’t try to tell Gino D’Campo how to cook Italian food…In one of the most iconic moments of modern TV, the Italian chef absolutely ripped Holly Willoughby’s head off over her attempted perversion of his Mac and cheese. The unforgettable line, “if my grandmother had wheels she would have been a bike”, has now entered the collective parlance, usable both in it’s complete version and in the abbreviation, “if my grandmother had wheels…”. Very useful when you need to call out somebodies hypothetical nonsense.

5. Katie Hopkins on children’s names

It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when Katie Hopkins became famous. Nobody seems totally sure what she does, or why it deserves our attention, but this moment on the This Morning couch seems to have been instrumental in making Katie Hopkins happen. Katie claims to make snap judgements on any children with a geographical name, or one relating to nature like “Apple”. Philip goes two for two on Katie’s own children’s names, and launches a career in the process. Watch for yourself:

4. Dermot O’Leary’s ‘Courage’

Legendary comedian Barry Humphries was a guest on the This Morning couch not long after Philip Schofield publicly came out as gay. With perfect deadpan delivery and excellent timing, the comic fabricated a moment of senior confusion to congratulate Dermot O’Leary on his bravery and courage in telling the world about his “sexuality”, who tried to keep a straight face as Alison Hammond lost herself lauging. Dermot promised to pass that on to “the gentleman who’s here from Monday to Thursday”. What a champ.

3. Alison Hammond scuttles a sailor

After a sideways promotion to weather reporting, Alison Hammond found herself broadcasting from a floating map of the UK, for some reason accompanied by two buff half-naked “sailors”. Alison made a jump from the west coast of Scotland over to Northern Ireland, and took the opportunity to shove one of her sailors straight into the water – thank god he could swim.

2. Iris and her Egyptian toyboy…

80 year old Retired cleaner Iris visited the This Morning studio to tell Holly and Phil about her new 35 year old Egyptian lover, and she didn’t hold back on the details, helping to create three absolutely unforgettable minutes of TV that should not have been broadcast at breakfast time.

1. Losing it with Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling

Within the first thirty seconds of her interview with the stars of the new Blade Runner movie, Alison Hammond confesses that she’s never seen the originals, and within the first minute she’s daydrinking with Ryan Gosling. It’s a miracle that any of this was usable, but thank god that it was.
