Lip Sync Battle UK is back for an all-new star-studded series - but was it always a guaranteed nightmare-inducer?
Everyone watching at home on Friday (January 6) will be holding their loved ones a bit closer tonight, hoping against all hope to banish memories of Damy Dyhouse. Good luck with that!
As Professor Green and Scary Spice herself Mel B kick off a brand new series of Lip Sync Battle UK, let's check in with terrified viewers (warning - NSFW tweets follow):
It all started out innocently enough with lads' lad Danny Dyer rockin' a tune from his, well, lads - 'Fire' by Kasabian:
We're still on track as Danny's opponent Mr Bean... err, Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood... has a 'Total Eclipse of the Heart':
Consider this your final warning - look away now! If not, you're going to be doomed forever with the terrifying image of Danny Dyer dolled up as Amy Winehouse. We're so sorryβ¦
What to Read Next
Yeah, Craig Revel Horwood dressing up as Britney Spears is kind of terrifying too, and yet we love it?
And the winner is⦠Craig! And the loser is us because we're cursed with these waking nightmares forever!
Chuckling on the sidelines and making wisecracks all night was Professor Green, who recently hinted to Digital Spy that he'd be taking the piss out of all of the celebs this series.
"I'm just a bit of a meanie!" he laughed. "I think, 'Get it right the first time or sod off'. When I used to battle, there were no second chances. So I am harsh β I'm the little shit in the corner!"
We'll get more from "meanie" Greenie next Friday (January 13) on Channel 5 as Jimmy Carr battles Alexander Armstrong on Lip Sync Battle UK.
