THERE are some types of twat who appear on every panel game, discussion programme or reality show going. Here are five offenders you’ll definitely recognise.
Quiz show twats
The quiz show twat turns up on every game show that requires them to answer nerdy questions, from Pointless to Eggheads. Rather than just taking part in a televised game for fun, the quiz show twat is an obsessive who won’t rest until they are reigning champion of Countdown for the fourth time.
Medical expert twats
The pandemic has been a boom time for this type of twat. We’re not talking genuine medical experts such as Chris Whitty, but rather the type of ‘celebrity doctor’ who gave up medicine after three months and now appears on This Morning urging viewers not to lick bus windows or snog their nan.
Rent-a-gob political twats
These twats appear on every ‘serious’ topical programme going, but Newsnight is a particular favourite for gobby politicians and commentators who want to patronise ordinary people or share their lunatic opinions. However, they all give Good Morning Britain a miss as Piers Morgan is far too challenging.
Royal expert twats
These twats are usually posh people who once saw Prince William from a long distance at a garden party and now think they have a unique insight into his mind and marriage. Though they talk about Wills and Kate as if they’re close personal friends, they’d be shot by a sniper if they got within 20 feet of them.
Manufactured outrage twats
Worried that your issues-based panel show will be a bit dull? Invite some divisive idiot on to share their horrible opinions and create unnecessary controversy, for example, Nigel Farage talking about transphobia. It will be so vile to watch that the edited clips will go viral. Result.
