Sunday Brunch host Tim Lovejoy had viewers in stitches after a hilarious gaffe on the Channel 4 programme. In the latest episode aired on Sunday morning (September 15), Tim and his co-host Simon Rimmer were joined by Lucy Beaumont, Pixie Lott, Blossoms, Gary Lightbody, Ellie Leach and Sophia Warner. However, the show took a comedic turn when Tim made an error.

Misnaming the famous ship HMS Belfast as HMV Belfast, Tim was swiftly corrected by his co-host Simon, leading him to quickly rephrase his statement. Addressing guest Gary, Tim queried: "So Gary, by the way you were at HMV Belfast yesterday. How was that, was that good?"

He added: "We've got a picture of it there, here you go." Simon was quick to point out the correct name was HMS. Laughing off Tim's minor blunder, Gary assured the hosts he still enjoyed himself regardless, reports the Express.

Viewers also noticed the slip-up, with one taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, to comment: "That HMV/HMS joke was literally the funniest thing I have ever ever heard we are so f*****g back. I want to cheer."

Sunday Brunch returned to screens over the weekend following a brief break due to the 2024 Paralympic games. Earlier this month, fans were disappointed to discover their favourite Sunday show had been cancelled. Irritated fans promptly expressed their frustration in the comments section when an unexpected programme change was announced on their Facebook page.

A disgruntled viewer took to social media, lamenting: "Oh no... that's thrown my routine of the window ...cats are going to miss Petflix," while another shared their dismay: "Missing Sunday Brunch this morning, look forward to next week."

Echoing the sentiment, two other viewers expressed their letdown, with one asking: "What am I going to do Sunday," and another exclaiming: "Nooooo! ! What am I going to do tomorrow morning now," both punctuating their messages with sad-faced emojis.

Others kept their reactions brief but poignant, posting a simple "Noooo," to sum up their frustration over the unexpected change in Channel 4's programming.
