Saturday Kitchen Live fans have been left in hysterics as a special guest repeated a rude word on live television.
The awkward moment occurred on today’s episode on the BBC One show, when guest chef Poppy O’Toole headed onto the series to rustle up a meal for celebrity guest Alesha Dixon.
Whilst cooking alongside the series’ host Matt Tebbutt, the TikTok star revealed that she was let go from her job and went on to garner a huge following of four million on the platform - thanks to her potato-inspired posts.
After being asked about her rise to fame on the social media site, Poppy meant to tell Matt that she won her following “on a whim”, but accidentally used the word “q**m” instead - a vulgar slang word for women’s genitals.
After the chef uttered the phrase about three times, Matt thankfully corrected Poppy which prompted her to awkwardly ask: "What's a q**m?"
Like a true professional, Matt brushed off the embarrassing remark before swiftly moving onto a different topic.
The moment didn’t go unnoticed by home viewers, with tons of people flocking to Twitter to mention the side-splitting moment.
One fan wrote alongside a slew of laughing emojis:"'Whats a quim?' Best thing ever asked on Saturday morning TV.”
Another wrote: "#saturdaykitchen did she really just ask what a 'quim' was," to which a third added, "Poppy right now not having a CLUE what she said lmao."
A fourth added in: "Wonderful wonderful scenes as the word quim gets said twice instead of whim on #SaturdayKitchen. Highlight of the year so far."
Others praised Matt for how he dealt with the situation, including one person who said: "And the award for the keeping of the straight face of the year award goes to @matt_tebbutt the consummate professional!!!"
The Mirror has contacted a representative of the BBC for a comment on the matter.
