When you appear on a show entitled Tattoo Fixers, you'd be forgiven for thinking your tattoo would get… well… fixed.

And after your chosen artist works their magic on your original dodgy inking, you wouldn't expect to see any further mistakes, would you?

Well, unfortunately for one member of the public who rocked up on the super-popular E4 show, their replacement tat is in need of a little editing.

Having been tended to by Alice Perrin, Kat now sports a a tattoo of a clock which boasts two elevens and no number nine.

And viewers wasted no time calling Alice out on her error, with one taking to Twitter to write: "#TattooFixers going to have to do another cover up on this one… two 11s and no 9?"

Thankfully for Alice, many Twitter users rushed to her defence, insisting that tat mistakes happen from time to time.

Guys, we think she knows this – the clue is in the name…

Whether you watch Game of Thrones or not, you know it's somewhat of a TV phenomenon.

And when you love the show, you really, really love the show.

So, it's no real surprise that this busker in Town Hall Station in Sydney began absolutely coining it the moment he began playing the theme song from the smash-hit fantasy show.

Violinist Vasiliy Shapkin managed to lift the daily drudgery for these commuters, and by the monetary offerings and round of applause he received at the end, it looks like they were pretty grateful for it.

Prepare yourselves for some serious goosebumps, ladies.

When news broke that his nephew, Brendan Dassey, had had his conviction for the murder of Teresa Halbach overturned last month, hope in the Steven Avery camp intensified.

And as his attorney, Kathleen Zellner, filed the motion for his exoneration, Steven, whose story in Making a Murder gripped millions this year, focussed on his desire to write a personal memoir.

While speaking to In Touch, Steven maintained confidence that he would soon be freed, saying: "I’m comfortable. I know I have a good attorney and that she’ll prove my innocence."

After revealing that he wants the memoir to explore his time in prison and the personal struggles he endured at the hands of the legal system, 54-year-old Steven then admitted he could see the book making its way to the silver screen.

When pressed as to who would play him in the story of his life, Steven replied: "Maybe Brad Pitt,"

Despite sounding certain that Brad was the man for the job, the father-of-four admitted that he hasn't seen the A-lister in too many films as television access was limited during his time behind bars.

"We don’t get too many stations, but we’ve got the news," he explained.

Well, if you're going to opt for anyone, you opt for Brad Pitt, right?

If recent reports were to be believed, Vicky Pattison's past had officially come back to haunt her as she struggled to hold onto her position on Loose Women panel due to excessive partying.

With Vicky set to leave the show, insiders sent the rumourmill into overdrive as they hinted that Vicky just didn't have the work etiquette required to hold down the position on the popular afternoon show.

"She’s a real party animal and seemed much more focused on nights out, which could sometimes impact her commitment to the show." a source told The Sun.

"It’s a full time job and with her diary the way it is, Vicky was finding it increasingly hard to fit it in and devote her full attention to it," they added, and Vicky is not having it.

Taking to Twitter today, the former Geordie Shore star dismissed the allegations and insisted that her contract with the show had simply run its course.

"Regardless of what may have incorrectly reported about me, I would like to set the record straight: I've loved my time on @loosewomen but it was only a summer contract and now I'm having some time off before I start some big & exciting projects this Autumn," she told followers today.
 

"My relationship with all the @loosewomen, the team and @ITV is still great and we all tried to clarify the truth before this story was printed however we were ignored."

"Anyway, THANK YOU all for the sweet messages- and I'm sure I'll pop back to see the ladies again!" Vicky wrote before promoting a This Morning segment which she'll be appearing in alongside fellow reality star Ferne McCann.

So that's that, then.

If you're a die-hard Corrie fan, you'll have seen some things in your day.

From Sarah Louise's pregnancy at 13 and Richard Hillman's killing spree to that infamous tram crash and hostage situation, Coronation Street viewers are made of stern stuff when it comes to their soap storylines.

Or are they?

While they may be able to handle all of the above, it seems they struggle when it comes to a simple hook-up scene between two of the show's male characters.

"Homosexual scenes in #Corrie tonight were sickening. Most now tolerate this practice but we don’t need it rammed down our throats," wrote one member of the public.

Stunned that producers would give the go-ahead for a kissing scene between Billy Mayhew and Todd Grimshaw, viewers took to Twitter in the droves – and Daniel Brocklebank, who plays Billy, is furious.

Using the same medium as his critics, he tweeted: "Had many angry tweets saying "I'm disgusted my kids saw men kiss on tv"

"I'm disgusted they left it up tv to teach their kids how love works," the actor added in a post which has been liked thousands of times.

Thankfully, it looks like Daniel's outrage hasn't been in vain and he has since returned to Twitter to thank social media users for their support.

"Thanks for ur AMAZING messages! Let's not hate on the homophobes," he wrote before adding: "We're bigger than that. Hate breeds more hate. They need love & education."

Paying tribute to the actor today, one follower replied: "I'm bursting with pride for the way you handle all of that, thank you for being a good egg."

Over the course of their five years together on Geordie Shore, it was hard to keep up with the goings on between Gary Beadle and Charlotte Crosby.

But one thing was for certain – Charlotte was definitely more invested in the relationship than Gary ever was.

And now it looks like Gary is accepting both that and the fact that his on-screen actions ultimately brought their on again / off again romance to a complete end.

Opening up during an interview with This Morning yesterday, the 28-year-old Geordie lad accepted that his antics while filming Ex on the Beach was the straw that broke the camel's back.

"It was me who messed up, I won't lie about that," he began. "We were kind of seeing each other again before I went on EOTB. I was like, look it will be make or break."

"Me being me went in there the first night, got drunk and got with someone," he admitted. "I knew straight away I'd messed things up with Charlotte."

He added: "Being drunk is not an excuse at all. If I hadn't have done that, I would have come back and we'd probably have been fine."

The professional party-boy accepts that filming together put a strain on their potential future together and sounds relieved that the drama surrounding them appears to have come to somewhat of an end.

"We had a crazy five years and there was a lot of pressure on our relationship," he said. "It would have taken one of us to leave Geordie Shore before we could both move on with our lives."

Anyone else still holding out hope their paths might cross again though?

We thought Adele was pretty damn impressive when she tried her hand at a bit of the ol' rapping during Carpool Karaoke with James Corden, but it looks like she might have some competition in the form of Millie Bobby Brown.

Millie has become an overnight sensation after nailing her role as Eleven in Stranger Things, and while we knew she had the acting and singing downpat, we had no idea she was so skilled in the rhymin' department.

While appearing on Jimmy Fallon's The Tonight Show, the young British star was encouraged to showcase her skills during a game of Stranger Strings in which the young cast of the hit sci-fi show read out statements and guessed who they might apply to.

Sounder slicker than we ever could, Millie launched into the first verse of Nicki's Monster, and frankly we're all blown away.

Is it weird to be jealous of a 12-year-old?

People don't like being put on the spot.

And people definitely don't like being put on the spot on national television.

But that generally doesn't stop them giving it their best shot for their big moment… as these poor guys and gals illustrated during a segment of Jimmy Kimmel Live this week.

After being approached by a 'reporter' for Lie Witness News and asked their opinion of Donald Trump's performance on Dancing With the Stars – no, he's not on it – they offered some pretty convincing assessments of a performance which did not take place.

From critiquing his style to mentioning the beef Twitter had with the appearance, these people weren't going to let their moment on the small screen slip through their fingers without saying something…although we really wish they had.

Watch this if you can handle awkwardness at its most extreme.

Any regular Gogglebox viewer will know that the show's narrators play as much of a role in the reality programme as its cast of TV addicts.

From the late Caroline Aherne's deadpan delivery to Craig Cash's confused-sounding narrative, the UK show's narrators set the tone for each scene before cast members made it their own with a host of hilarious one-liners and bizarre behaviour.

And if you – like us – have been waiting with bated breath to hear who got the coveted spot for the Irish version of the Channel 4 show, the time has come.

Deciding not to leave us in suspense, TV3, who will be airing the show in September, announced that Deirdre O'Kane and Mrs Brown's Boys star Rory Cowan are set to report on the telly habits of families, couple and friends up and down the country.

Commenting on the highly-anticipated show, TV3 bosses said: "The show promises an eclectic mix of characters that audiences will both love and love to hate."

Hate? But we don't hate ANYONE on the British version….

We all know Stephen Bear cheated on Lillie Lexie Gregg with Chloe Khan while in the Celebrity Big Brother house, but according to Bear, who went on to win the latest series of the reality show, he wasn't the only one unfaithful during the course of their relationship.

While appearing on Loose Women yesterday, the Ex on the Beach star implied Lillie wasn't without a fault, saying: "The last two girls I have been with cheated on me. It’s bang out of order."

And Lillie wasn't having a word of it.

Taking to Twitter last night, Lillie, who met Bear while appearing on Ex on the Beach wrote: "Wow, how dare you?"

"Quite happy to go to the extent of a lie detector test on this one," she wrote. "Theres only one cheat and it certainly wasn't me."

Lillie, who confronted Bear during an emotional scene in the CBB house, added: "Categorically not true. That is my only comment."

And it looks like Lillie's insistence had the desired effect on her ex-boyfriend who appeared to go and check his sources before taking to Twitter to admit he was wrong to accuse her.

"Never believe rumours. Just spoke to @rossworswick and nothing happened," he wrote in a post this afternoon.

"Sorry LillieGregg, I wish you all the best of luck." he finished in a post which has been liked hundreds of times in mere hours.

If you – like millions others – found yourself enthralled by Stranger Things over the course of the summer, then you'll be pleased to hear the good folk at Netflix have officially announced they will be renewing the break-out hit.

While there have been whispers in the works ever since we laid eyes on Mike, Eleven and the rest of the cast, those in the know have kept us in suspense until today.

According to Variety, season 2 of the 80s sci-fi smash-hit show will consist of 9 episodes – one more than season 1 – and debut in 2017.

Speaking prior to the announcement, creators Matt and Ross Duffer drew attention to the fact that the show's arc allows for break-off storylines, saying: "There’s a bigger mythology, and there’s a lot of dangling threads at the end."

"We could explore it if Netflix wanted to continue," he added.

And thankfully, they do.
