Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood presenting the Brit Awards. Car crash with huge feckin' bells on.
Oh that was hilariously bad from start to finish. For me the highlight was when they announced the Four Tops instead of Boy George, who responded with, "No, I'm the One Top". Great stuff

There was not a lot they could do when the actual event was a complete shambles and the acts and guests were not appearing as in the running order they had been given. Even a much more experienced presenter probably could not have done any better and many would probably have just walked off the stage.

Might have helped if the presenters had been sober......
Prior to the graphic laden weather forecasts we have today, I think it was Michael Fish presenting when they pretty much used 'fuzzy felt'. The word FOG appeared across most of the UK, and in one area the 'F' had fallen over. At the end of the broadcast MF turned to camera and, without a hint of irony, said 'Sorry about the F in fog'.
I have no idea if he was aware of what he was saying - surely he was - but it stuck with me.
Not the presenter(s) ? the idiot guest who says something ill timed when he can't think of anything funny to say, by any chance ?
It isn't worth dwelling on really.

The Brits in 1989 was a shambles because it was the first event not organised by the paedophile music industry guru Jonathan King, who usually kept everything running very smoothly (if also rather dull back in those days).
Matthew Wright is a pretty good gaffe merchant. He constantly fluffs his lines and famously got into hot water for asking viewers to phone in to tell him if they'd have sex with Amanda Knox. He also made a joke about the murder of a Scottish teenager during a newspaper review. They are his most famous gaffes. He's very entertaining - for all the wrong reasons.

And not to mention 'destroying' John Leslie' s career!
Which reminds me of the time Terry Wogan & Fearne Cotton were presenting, I think it was A Song For Europe, the show to find the act to represent the UK at Eurovision and when there were two acts left both presenters said the winner at the same time. The problem was they both said different names (Terry saying the wrong name and Fearne saying the right name) so there was a bit of confusion until it was confirmed it was Scooch who had won.
It might have been the fault of someone telling Terry the wrong name in his earpiece though.
There was a gaffe of a newsreader not realising the camera was still on her and she turned to the camera and mouthed "**** off" to the gallery. Obviously being hassled through her ear piece.
I think it was Julie Etchingham but I can't find the clip.

Wasn't it Sarah Montague during her Breakfast tv stint?

I'd forgotten that one, although I've never understood why it was OK for the press to name him that day but not a TV presenter.

That is brilliant :D:D
I heard that live and didn't stop smiling all day.
And Nick Knowles on New Year's Eve saying that the fireworks display reminded him of 'our boys in Afghanistan' ....
The press only named him after Wright did although I gather it was a fairly open secret but no evidence was brought against Leslie.
