Welcome to this year's collection of the most annoying people of 2011.

0:00:260:00:31

Hi, are you all right?

0:00:310:00:32

ARGH!

0:00:320:00:34

In Britain, the more wrong it goes, the more we like it.

0:00:370:00:41

Celebrities always annoying people.

0:00:380:00:41

Over the past 12 months, we've been drawing up a hit list

0:00:410:00:44

of the most annoying people from around the globe.

0:00:440:00:47

This beautiful flower for you.

0:00:470:00:49

He's lucky Madonna didn't take that hydrangea and slap him.

0:00:490:00:52

-Pop stars.

-Hello, everybody.

0:00:520:00:54

-Politicians.

-I'll never forgive him. I'm not returning his calls at all.

0:00:540:00:58

Phone hackers.

0:00:580:01:00

Staff have been putting the finishing touches to the last edition

0:01:000:01:03

of the News of the World because of the latest phone-hacking allegations.

0:01:030:01:07

All the ones that have done their best to rattle our cages and trouble our Twitter.

0:01:070:01:12

We've got superstar meltdowns...

0:01:120:01:15

All he talked about was hookers and drugs and money, and he's really lost.

0:01:150:01:19

-..super injunctions...

-How about you just don't do shit? How about that?

0:01:190:01:23

How about you just behave?

0:01:230:01:24

..and some super-enhanced bodies.

0:01:240:01:27

I can walk around with a T-shirt that says, "Call my agent". I'm annoying.

0:01:270:01:31

Geordies gave TV a whole new breed of extra annoying reality stars.

0:01:310:01:35

Any girl that spits in a man's face is a girl I want to be rolling with.

0:01:350:01:40

-Katie Price got herself a new man...

-I haven't got a particular type.

0:01:420:01:47

..and, never one to be outdone, Lindsay Lohan got herself a new prison sentence.

0:01:470:01:51

The fact that she just wants to nick things is appalling.

0:01:510:01:55

2011 has also been the year of the unexpected.

0:02:030:02:06

Looters and rioters shattered our big cities.

0:02:060:02:10

A famous fashionista fell from grace.

0:02:100:02:12

You can be the most coolest person in fashion, but that kind of behaviour has to be held accountable.

0:02:120:02:18

And no-one could have predicted that a bridesmaid's derriere

0:02:180:02:22

would steal the limelight from a Royal bride.

0:02:220:02:25

Pippa's bum just took over the nation.

0:02:250:02:27

So, sit back and get ready to vent with vehemence

0:02:270:02:30

as we continue our trip through the most annoying people of 2011.

0:02:300:02:35

Next on our list, it's everyone's favourite annoying popstar.

0:02:370:02:41

Another vintage year for the first lady of annoying behaviour began back in January.

0:02:430:02:48

Her Grammy outfit in 2010 was the infamous meat dress.

0:02:480:02:51

This year, she arrived being carried in a giant egg.

0:02:510:02:55

She claimed to have been in the egg for three hours

0:02:550:02:58

getting herself in character, ready for the show,

0:02:580:03:00

which kind of sounds a bit ridiculous.

0:03:000:03:03

What character was she trying to get into, a chick?

0:03:030:03:06

# This time I'm not leaving without you... #

0:03:060:03:11

But the Grammys weren't the only awards this year where Gaga had us gagging.

0:03:110:03:15

Most annoying for me this year with Lady Gaga was when she turned up

0:03:150:03:18

to the MTV Awards as her male alter ego, I think it was Jo Calderone.

0:03:180:03:23

She looked like Shane MacGowan from The Pogues on acid

0:03:240:03:28

and that she needed a really good wash.

0:03:280:03:30

So poor Britney Spears must have been terrified

0:03:300:03:34

when Gaga tried to snog her.

0:03:340:03:36

You're like, "Gaga, that's already been done.

0:03:360:03:38

"Madonna, the person you copy every day, has already snogged Britney."

0:03:380:03:43

# My momma told me when I was young... #

0:03:430:03:47

Snogging Britney wasn't the only time Gaga was accused

0:03:470:03:50

of taking her love of Madonna a bit too far this year.

0:03:500:03:54

Her single Born This Way also sounded a touch familiar.

0:03:540:03:58

It was a cover of Express Yourself!

0:03:580:04:00

I'm amazed Madonna's lawyers haven't been on the phone

0:04:000:04:03

and suing the arse off her.

0:04:030:04:05

The Born This Way/Express Yourself phenomenon, where you play

0:04:070:04:11

both of the songs at the same time and sounds exactly like it...

0:04:110:04:15

# I'm beautiful in my way Cos God makes no mistakes

0:04:150:04:18

# I'm on the right track, baby, I was born this way... #

0:04:180:04:23

# Don't go for second best, baby, put your love... #

0:04:230:04:28

It's true, it's all true.

0:04:280:04:29

-But is it an homage?

-No.

0:04:290:04:32

-Is it inspiration?

-No.

0:04:320:04:33

Or is it like when I go to the mall and steal something?

0:04:330:04:37

That's like when you go to the mall and steal something.

0:04:370:04:41

When Gaga was asked about the controversy,

0:04:410:04:44

she said she wouldn't be moronic enough to rip off another artist,

0:04:440:04:47

but it wasn't just the music that annoyed.

0:04:470:04:50

The song's message of tolerance also grated for some of Gaga's fiercest fans.

0:04:500:04:54

She was expecting it to turn into this really gay anthem and,

0:04:540:04:57

unfortunately, they saw it as very much pandering to them

0:04:570:05:00

and they felt it was maybe a little bit desperate on her part.

0:05:000:05:05

Lady Gaga releases this album for the gays

0:05:050:05:07

and then we say she's pandering - like, how can you please us?

0:05:070:05:10

Well, Madonna knows how.

0:05:100:05:11

Up next, the Bourne Ultimatum.

0:05:130:05:16

When bride-to-be Heidi Withers

0:05:190:05:21

set off for a peaceful weekend away in Devon with her prospective parents-in-law,

0:05:210:05:27

little did she know what she was letting herself in for.

0:05:270:05:30

Gardening guru Carolyn Bourne, step-mum of fiance Freddie,

0:05:310:05:35

objected so strongly to the way she felt Heidi had behaved on the visit

0:05:350:05:39

that she sent her an email attacking her manners.

0:05:390:05:42

It seems the email Mrs Bourne sent from here

0:05:430:05:46

to her daughter-in-law-to-be was meant to be private.

0:05:460:05:50

But somehow it was forwarded on to other people,

0:05:500:05:53

who then sent it on to more people, and then it went viral.

0:05:530:05:57

When I read it I was so shocked

0:06:000:06:02

at how somebody can be that blunt.

0:06:020:06:05

If my mum ever wrote my boyfriend like that,

0:06:050:06:08

I would cold slap that bitch.

0:06:080:06:10

She sounds like Mrs Bucket on steroids,

0:06:100:06:12

that's what I gleaned from that email.

0:06:120:06:15

By her failure to keep up required appearances,

0:06:170:06:21

newspapers readers around the world learned that Carolyn

0:06:210:06:24

considered Heidi an ideal candidate for Ladette to Lady

0:06:240:06:28

and suggested that she found herself a good finishing school.

0:06:280:06:31

-ARCHIVE:

-Finishing school gives you that touch of savoire fair.

0:06:310:06:34

Down...and up.

0:06:340:06:37

So what was it that got the haughty horticulturalist so upset?

0:06:370:06:42

Apparently she ate her dinner before everyone else.

0:06:500:06:53

I mean, I do - you know, I mean, sometimes I don't even say grace.

0:06:530:06:56

The gardening gloves were off as her mumzilla's manners guide continued.

0:06:560:07:01

This demon of decorum had more advice.

0:07:010:07:05

I think you should lead by example, you know,

0:07:120:07:16

she could have handwritten her email, couldn't she?

0:07:160:07:18

And sent it in a little notelet card with a picture of some ducks

0:07:180:07:21

on the front or something and it would have been rather lovely.

0:07:210:07:24

Carolyn really couldn't contain herself, though,

0:07:240:07:28

when it came to Freddie and Heidi's plans

0:07:280:07:30

to hold their reception at Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire.

0:07:300:07:34

You can imagine her sitting there with her handbag going, "Mmm".

0:07:390:07:43

In fact, as she's writing this, I like to imagine that she's dressed

0:07:430:07:47

like Maggie Smith from Downton Abbey with the same sour look on her face.

0:07:470:07:50

It's quite nice to know that your family are not the only family

0:07:500:07:54

that are absolutely mental.

0:07:540:07:56

It's nice for people to look on and be like, "Oh, yeah, OK,

0:07:560:07:58

"my boyfriend's mum's a bit of a cow,

0:07:580:08:00

"but at least she didn't send this email to me."

0:08:000:08:03

Unsurprisingly, Carolyn and her husband were not seen at the wedding this November.

0:08:030:08:08

But, then again, nor was Heidi.

0:08:080:08:10

Up next, not one, but two annoying things in 2011.

0:08:120:08:16

Kate Moss began the year by setting the catwalk alight

0:08:160:08:19

with a smoking appearance.

0:08:190:08:21

There is no question that smoking is vulgar, particularly on a catwalk.

0:08:250:08:29

Unfortunately, I'm not sure how long Kate can go

0:08:290:08:32

between one cigarette and the next.

0:08:320:08:34

Here she is, for whatever reason, an icon of our times.

0:08:350:08:38

She absolutely knows that.

0:08:380:08:41

Why she felt the need to force that on to the catwalk

0:08:410:08:45

when she knew the way that that would appear to teenagers as,

0:08:450:08:48

"Well, it's cool, cos Kate Moss does it,"

0:08:480:08:50

and I know that's a really boring and old argument,

0:08:500:08:54

but, the fact of the matter is, it is true.

0:08:540:08:57

But smoking wasn't the only annoying thing that Kate did this year.

0:08:580:09:01

In July she married hubby Jamie Hince with a guest list

0:09:010:09:05

of A-list movers and shakers intent on causing chaos in the Cotswolds.

0:09:050:09:08

It was a very eclectic group, including two celebrity racists -

0:09:100:09:14

Brown and Galliano were there.

0:09:140:09:16

If you're going to invite Galliano and James Brown to your wedding,

0:09:160:09:20

you probably should cross off Samuel L Jackson,

0:09:200:09:22

and Woody Allen as well.

0:09:220:09:23

I think the priest would have probably been trying to get

0:09:230:09:26

through the ceremony as quick as possible.

0:09:260:09:29

"I now pronounce you man and wife, off you go".

0:09:290:09:32

The residents of Little Faringdon were absolutely furious

0:09:320:09:36

with Kate Moss for basically shutting down the village

0:09:360:09:39

so she could stage her own mini festival.

0:09:390:09:42

Three days for a wedding.

0:09:420:09:45

Most weddings I know you get to the evening, a couple of drinks,

0:09:450:09:48

a fight, then we go home. Three days!

0:09:480:09:51

She made it completely clear that this was a private event.

0:09:540:09:58

However, she expected all the residents nearby to put up

0:09:580:10:02

with receiving absolutely no access to their village.

0:10:020:10:06

How they meant to get to the local pub?

0:10:060:10:09

How's the mobile library meant to go around while she's there lording it up?

0:10:090:10:12

The police spent thousands and thousands of pounds

0:10:120:10:15

and it was completely and utterly unacceptable.

0:10:150:10:18

Kate Moss is used to having police visit her. This time they were on her side.

0:10:180:10:22

Well, through the village there's been lots of vehicles,

0:10:250:10:29

blacked out windows, containing, well...

0:10:290:10:31

-CHEERING

-..we know not who.

0:10:310:10:33

Shutting down a whole village does not make you the lady of the manor.

0:10:330:10:39

Maybe she was doing it to be different.

0:10:410:10:43

Maybe she was doing it to be a little shocking,

0:10:430:10:46

but it was so annoying.

0:10:460:10:49

Now for a fallen fashionista.

0:10:520:10:55

Eccentric enfant terrible John Galliano

0:10:570:10:59

has been causing waves on the catwalk for years.

0:10:590:11:02

# Fashion, turn to the left Fashion, turn to the right... #

0:11:020:11:07

But 2011 saw the oddball outfitter go completely off the rails,

0:11:070:11:11

as admiration turned to outrage.

0:11:110:11:14

On Thursday evening, John Galliano was arrested at this bar

0:11:140:11:17

for the suspected verbal abuse of a female customer.

0:11:170:11:19

He vehemently denies the use of anti-semitic language.

0:11:190:11:22

Are you blond with blue eyes?

0:11:220:11:24

No, but I love Hitler and people like you would be dead today.

0:11:240:11:28

WOMAN LAUGHS

0:11:280:11:30

-Your mother's... Your forefathers would be

-BLEEP

-dead.

0:11:300:11:34

WOMAN: Oh, my God!

0:11:340:11:36

But when it emerged that Galliano

0:11:360:11:38

had been responsible for two more racist rants at the same bar,

0:11:380:11:42

employers Christian Dior sacked the disgraced designer.

0:11:420:11:46

John Galliano was really the go-to guy in fashion.

0:11:460:11:49

This is a man who had people like Kate Moss, Natalie Portman,

0:11:490:11:52

Madonna on his speed dial.

0:11:520:11:56

You couldn't think of a name in fashion any more prestigious

0:11:560:11:59

or famous than he.

0:11:590:12:01

People in the fashion industry are always a bit odd and a bit

0:12:030:12:07

quirky but quirkiness does not make racist outbursts acceptable.

0:12:070:12:13

Here's a man who is part of a group of people who have been

0:12:150:12:20

stereotyped in the past - he's a gay man and proud of it -

0:12:200:12:24

but it makes it even more unpalatable that he's pointing at a minority

0:12:240:12:29

and showing how racist he was.

0:12:290:12:31

I'd love for John to go back in time to Hitler where Hitler was

0:12:310:12:35

throwing all these parties for gay people

0:12:350:12:37

and showing how much he appreciated them.

0:12:370:12:40

Oh, no, he wasn't, he was putting them in ovens as well.

0:12:400:12:42

It's more just very sad because the thing is,

0:12:420:12:46

he is genuinely huge talent.

0:12:460:12:48

And you can be the most brilliant, the most, you know, coolest person

0:12:480:12:52

in fashion, but that kind of behaviour has to be held accountable.

0:12:520:12:55

Galliano faced trial in a Paris court with his defence team

0:12:550:12:59

denying he was racist and blaming his outbursts on alcohol

0:12:590:13:03

and prescription drugs.

0:13:030:13:04

# Now the drugs don't work They just make you worse... #

0:13:040:13:08

"I'm having trouble sleeping cos I'm working in Australia, doctor."

0:13:080:13:12

"I recommend some Zopiclone sleeping tablets."

0:13:120:13:14

"Any side effects?"

0:13:140:13:15

"Yes, you will shout, "Jew, Jew, dirty Jew," every time you wake up."

0:13:150:13:19

"I might just stick to the Nytol."

0:13:190:13:21

Causing yet another scene at 13 is a celebrity racking up

0:13:250:13:28

a fifth appearance on the most annoying list.

0:13:280:13:32

# Baby, you're a firework... #

0:13:320:13:34

Hold on to your valuables - it's Lindsay Lohan!

0:13:340:13:37

Lindsay's attention-seeking antics have been virtually unstoppable

0:13:380:13:42

this year, and back in February she added something new

0:13:420:13:45

to her long list of bad girl behaviour...

0:13:450:13:47

jewellery thief!

0:13:470:13:49

This is someone who could potentially make millions

0:13:490:13:52

and millions and millions of pounds if she wanted to,

0:13:520:13:54

and the fact that she just wants to nick things is just appalling.

0:13:540:13:59

-When regular people take things, it's called stealing.

-Yes.

0:13:590:14:02

When a celebrity steals something, it's called loaning and borrowing.

0:14:020:14:06

Or gifting!

0:14:060:14:07

It's tough in Hollywood. People don't get this.

0:14:070:14:09

They don't realise how hard film stars have it and you know what?

0:14:090:14:13

Sometimes you just need a little bit of extra jewellery,

0:14:130:14:16

and if people aren't just going to give it to you,

0:14:160:14:18

what are you supposed to do? Pay for it yourself?!

0:14:180:14:21

Charged with theft and probation violations,

0:14:210:14:23

the judge sentenced her to 120 days' house arrest,

0:14:230:14:26

but rapper Pitbull sentenced her to life

0:14:260:14:29

in his international hit song Give Me Everything.

0:14:290:14:32

RAPS: And I got her locked up like Lindsay Lohan.

0:14:320:14:35

This girl's actually suing the rapper Pitbull

0:14:350:14:38

because he mentions her in his music video.

0:14:380:14:41

HE RAPS: And I got her locked up like Lindsay Lohan.

0:14:410:14:44

Well, she WAS locked up. It's a fact - rappers can rap about whatever they want,

0:14:440:14:48

but they can particularly rap about something that actually happened.

0:14:480:14:53

I think the girl should be so lucky to have any mention at all

0:14:540:14:58

in the world right now.

0:14:580:14:59

What is she doing for society besides serving as an example

0:14:590:15:02

of what not to be when you grow up?

0:15:020:15:04

Struggling with her life and her make-up, Lohan was back in court

0:15:060:15:10

in November for yet again failing to complete her community service.

0:15:100:15:13

-JUDGE: Miss Lohan?

-I'm sorry.

0:15:130:15:15

After a recent 1 million payday for a full frontal Playboy shoot, where next for Lindsay?

0:15:150:15:20

They must be pushing for a reality show.

0:15:200:15:22

That's actually the one reality show

0:15:220:15:24

I'd be like, "Yes, that deserves to be made." I mean, we should be following her around.

0:15:240:15:29

Even if just as for an example to kids for how not to live their lives.

0:15:290:15:34

# It's a hard-knock life! #

0:15:340:15:36

Slipping down the list and slipping up this year,

0:15:380:15:40

Katie Price has had an even more annoying 2011,

0:15:400:15:43

but the problem is she just won't go away.

0:15:430:15:46

She's an animal, that one, she really is.

0:15:460:15:49

The poor guy, she's just like this big python waiting

0:15:520:15:55

to, like, get him and digest him.

0:15:550:15:57

Oh, I haven't got a particular type.

0:15:570:15:59

Poor Peter Andre.

0:15:590:16:00

You know, I'm in no rush to get married.

0:16:000:16:02

Poor Alex.

0:16:020:16:03

Why do I want to talk about exes?

0:16:030:16:05

She dumps her latest, Leandro,

0:16:050:16:08

by translator, who says to him, "You're not giving her enough sex".

0:16:080:16:13

That's not a nice person.

0:16:130:16:15

She'll get halfway through something and go,

0:16:150:16:18

"Oh, that's not working," and walk away.

0:16:180:16:20

That's fine if it's a book or a TV show. When it's a person...

0:16:200:16:23

Ohhhh.

0:16:230:16:24

And what gets me the most -

0:16:240:16:26

she hits them where it hurts and blasts them

0:16:260:16:30

all over the media

0:16:300:16:31

saying that they couldn't keep up with her in bed.

0:16:310:16:34

A dog with two dicks couldn't keep up with you in bed, pet.

0:16:340:16:37

Ever since her split from Peter Andre,

0:16:370:16:40

Katie may have lost the support of the general public,

0:16:400:16:43

but continues to make millions from her ample assets.

0:16:430:16:47

And, touch wood, everything I do does work.

0:16:470:16:50

So what does a girl who's already bared it all do for a bit more exposure?

0:16:520:16:57

Launch her own magazine of course, about her favourite subject.

0:16:570:17:01

Herself.

0:17:010:17:03

# You're so vain... #

0:17:030:17:05

Such a girly-girly magazine, it's all fun, uplifting.

0:17:050:17:09

I was just so pleased with it, they've done such a good job as well.

0:17:090:17:13

Katie Price has got a magazine. Doesn't mean anyone will read it.

0:17:130:17:16

It's got, like, problem pages,

0:17:160:17:18

it's got my views on people on the red carpet.

0:17:180:17:20

Not about the individual person, just about their outfit.

0:17:200:17:24

My favourite nail varnishes, my tattoos,

0:17:240:17:27

just bits that people don't know about me.

0:17:270:17:29

When Katie Price announced she was bringing out her own magazine,

0:17:290:17:32

it was a very dark day at Glamour Magazine,

0:17:320:17:35

we were quaking in our boots.

0:17:350:17:36

It's got cooking tips, and how to make what I make.

0:17:360:17:39

I don't care how Katie Price boils her frozen peas or makes them,

0:17:390:17:42

but the walking hypocrisy is that she has made millions

0:17:420:17:48

from magazines like OK!, Hello!, posing, telling them everything

0:17:480:17:53

and then she even shafts them by bringing out her own magazine.

0:17:530:17:57

It's like she can't have a lasting relationship with anyone.

0:17:570:18:01

Next up, it's Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dummer.

0:18:030:18:06

BOTH: Yo, yo, yo, what's up?

0:18:070:18:09

-I'm John.

-I'm Edward. BOTH: And together we are Jedward!

0:18:090:18:13

Yo, VIP. Let's kick it!

0:18:130:18:16

# Pressure! #

0:18:160:18:18

The very existence of Jedward is annoying.

0:18:180:18:21

They've got half a brain each and neither of those halves is working.

0:18:210:18:26

The thing we love about hotel rooms is no matter how dirty you make it,

0:18:260:18:29

you don't have to clean it up as you get the hotel cleaners

0:18:290:18:31

-to clean your room.

-And they're like, "Waa-ah!".

0:18:310:18:34

They're so pale,

0:18:340:18:35

they're like veal cutlets that haven't been out into the sun.

0:18:350:18:39

First of all, we should apologise to music lovers everywhere.

0:18:390:18:42

When we met Jedward last year, we planted a dangerous thought

0:18:420:18:46

in their otherwise empty heads.

0:18:460:18:47

Fortunately, the UK had other plans,

0:18:530:18:56

but Ireland, for what happened next, we are truly sorry.

0:18:560:18:59

We are Jedward!

0:18:590:19:00

And we're twins, OK, and we're so excited about making the final.

0:19:000:19:05

It nearly caused me to have a seizure.

0:19:090:19:11

They were moving around so fast mumbling these strange words.

0:19:110:19:14

It was like they were having a fit themselves.

0:19:140:19:17

They were the most annoying thing on the entire Eurovision,

0:19:170:19:20

which is saying a hell of a lot.

0:19:200:19:22

The boys finished in a fairly respectable eighth place

0:19:250:19:28

but their annoying year was only just getting started.

0:19:280:19:31

BOTH: Aaaagh!

0:19:310:19:35

Party!

0:19:350:19:38

# My bad behaviour My bad behaviour

0:19:380:19:41

# Told you I was trouble with my bad behaviour... #

0:19:410:19:44

Jedward's next move in 2011 was an impressive display

0:19:440:19:48

of just how irritating they really can be.

0:19:480:19:50

# Now tell me if I'm bad... #

0:19:500:19:53

Placed in a Big Brother house crammed full of annoying celebrities,

0:19:530:19:57

they had no problem putting their rivals in the shade.

0:19:570:20:00

They were incredibly annoying.

0:20:000:20:02

It was like two six-year-old children.

0:20:020:20:04

In fact, two-year-olds at times.

0:20:040:20:06

I think I was pretty close to putting both their heads down the toilet at one stage.

0:20:060:20:11

One thing you didn't see is me having them pinned up against a wall

0:20:110:20:14

in a strangulation attempt, which was very fun, I might add.

0:20:140:20:17

It wasn't life-threatening, but, boy, it could just have been...

0:20:170:20:21

# My bad behaviour... #

0:20:210:20:22

They were extremely irritating in Big Brother, yet finished third.

0:20:220:20:26

Could it be that the really annoying thing about Jedward this year

0:20:260:20:29

is that secretly we're all becoming Jedheads?

0:20:290:20:32

He's wearing his clothes because he's on TV

0:20:320:20:35

and he doesn't want to, like, show off his muscles.

0:20:350:20:39

I think secretly inside I'm a bit of a Jedward fan.

0:20:390:20:42

I...um...I like how tight their trousers are.

0:20:420:20:45

They are the only decent thing

0:20:460:20:48

Louis Walsh has ever done and I think they're brilliant.

0:20:480:20:51

Absolutely brilliant. Team Jedward.

0:20:510:20:54

-Jed to the E to the D to the ward.

-BOTH: Planet Jedward!

0:20:540:20:57

Their hits might have dried up,

0:20:570:20:58

but their 15 minutes of fame shows no sign of ending.

0:20:580:21:03

Rather annoyingly, it seems as though we're stuck with them.

0:21:030:21:06

Jedward are not going to change. They're never going to grow up. It is their brand.

0:21:060:21:10

Yes, they're annoying to some people,

0:21:100:21:12

but, my God, without people like that, we'd have a pretty boring world, wouldn't we?

0:21:120:21:16

At ten, MTV's shock reality show from Newcastle.

0:21:210:21:25

Serving a bevy of booze, birds and bonking, it's Geordie Shore.

0:21:250:21:29

After The Only Way is Essex, I thought, "Where do we go next?"

0:21:290:21:32

Newcastle. Let's find some metrosexual guys

0:21:320:21:35

and girls with their boobs hanging out. Should be easy enough.

0:21:350:21:39

The Geordie Shore cast exist on booze and sex, one-night stands...

0:21:400:21:45

We going to get four birds round, wine and dine them,

0:21:450:21:47

make them feel good and bang 'em.

0:21:470:21:49

I love the fact there was no tact or subtlety to it.

0:21:490:21:51

On the first night, there was already sex and a fight.

0:21:510:21:54

I think that's the sign of any good night out.

0:21:540:21:56

# Oh, watching people get lairy... #

0:21:560:22:01

I don't think they have any limits.

0:22:010:22:03

I think they're vile, they're disgusting.

0:22:030:22:05

This is too much.

0:22:050:22:07

I just want to go out, get them pissed, and bang them.

0:22:070:22:09

They say things that you would never say. They do things you would never do.

0:22:090:22:13

And it's vulgar.

0:22:130:22:15

And I love that. I sit there and I'm addicted.

0:22:150:22:18

I can sit and watch that programme back-to-back-to-back...

0:22:180:22:21

I'll need a shower afterwards.

0:22:230:22:24

Viewers and the national press were outraged by the gang's behaviour,

0:22:240:22:28

accusing it of taking reality TV to new lows.

0:22:280:22:32

My favourite girl in Geordie Shore has got to be Vicky.

0:22:320:22:35

I reckon Vicky's going to kick off without a doubt.

0:22:350:22:38

Vicky. "Don't push us, Jay."

0:22:380:22:40

I'm still raging about them bringing back them lasses

0:22:400:22:43

and now he feels the need to mug us off again.

0:22:430:22:46

Any girl that spits in her man's face is a girl I want to be rolling with.

0:22:490:22:52

I'm a bit embarrassed that I managed

0:22:540:22:57

to spit in Jason's face.

0:22:570:22:59

But he did piss us off.

0:22:590:23:01

You did it first, Jay! You did it first.

0:23:010:23:04

'I was working in a call centre.'

0:23:040:23:06

I was shite at it.

0:23:060:23:08

I was on me last warning, absolutely hated it.

0:23:080:23:11

It was an opportunity to do something

0:23:110:23:13

that not many people will ever, ever get the chance to experience -

0:23:130:23:17

getting paid to get pissed.

0:23:170:23:19

Oh, no.

0:23:260:23:28

I just loved the mad, swearing, Geordie patter.

0:23:310:23:35

As a Scotsman, I could almost understand most of it as well.

0:23:390:23:42

Tashing on.

0:23:440:23:45

Tashing on.

0:23:450:23:46

I've no idea.

0:23:460:23:48

Ejaculating on someone's top lip.

0:23:500:23:52

Get a tash on - it means to get off with someone and snog them.

0:23:520:23:55

Tashing on, I'm going to take full credit for.

0:23:550:23:58

It was just necking on, having a kiss.

0:23:580:24:01

Mortal.

0:24:030:24:04

Um...

0:24:040:24:06

Dead? That's dead.

0:24:060:24:08

Must mean hammered or pissed or drunk.

0:24:080:24:11

-GEORDIE ACCENT:

-Absolutely mortal, man. It means getting drunk.

0:24:110:24:14

Has a girl ever performed a slut drop on me?

0:24:160:24:19

That's a first. I've never heard of that term.

0:24:190:24:21

What's a slut drop?

0:24:210:24:23

Just by hearing that, I know exactly what it is. A slut that has dropped.

0:24:230:24:26

-Aw, show a slut drop.

-Slut drop is getting so famous right now.

0:24:260:24:30

It's a busy, busy bar on a Saturday night,

0:24:300:24:32

and the only way you're going to let that lad across the room know that you're into him

0:24:320:24:36

is by...doing a slut drop.

0:24:360:24:39

He starts, like, grinding behind on you, like, he's feeling you,

0:24:390:24:43

he's enjoying it and then all of a sudden - boom! Slut drop.

0:24:430:24:45

That's it, you've pulled.

0:24:450:24:47

And then after that, he is all over you like a rash.

0:24:470:24:51

I'm honestly not surprised that we're in your top 50 Most Annoying.

0:24:510:24:54

At the end of the day, we're a bunch of over-tanned, talentless twats.

0:24:540:24:59

At nine, it's the pap with the carefully-crafted pecs,

0:24:590:25:02

who can only be described as...

0:25:020:25:05

# So macho... #

0:25:050:25:06

I've never given a shit what people think.

0:25:060:25:08

# So macho... #

0:25:080:25:11

Which is just as well.

0:25:110:25:13

With a reputation as the most prolific paparazzi in the world,

0:25:130:25:16

Darryn Lions made an expose of himself

0:25:160:25:18

when he entered the celebrity Big Brother house this year.

0:25:180:25:21

I was quite surprised

0:25:210:25:22

Darryn Lyons entered Celebrity Big Brother, because it's normally

0:25:220:25:25

full of the worst kind of attention-seekers you've ever seen in your life.

0:25:250:25:29

Just to look at Darryn, he doesn't want the attention.

0:25:290:25:32

He keeps himself to himself.

0:25:320:25:33

He dresses normally, he's got a normal haircut. I couldn't understand it at all.

0:25:330:25:38

I'm not bothered about being watched 24 hours a day.

0:25:380:25:41

I've got nothing to hide. I am who I am. You love me or hate me.

0:25:410:25:44

It's one tick off the bucket list that not many people

0:25:440:25:46

and not many celebrities on the planet will get to do.

0:25:460:25:49

But it was his much talked about bizarre new body that sent Britain bonkers.

0:25:490:25:53

I think he's so cute!

0:25:530:25:56

He looks like a cute little Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.

0:25:560:25:59

And the press went to town on Darryn's shiny turtle tummy.

0:26:010:26:04

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle! I loved it. It was a fantastic headline.

0:26:040:26:09

Darryn's washboard stomach is a result of body contour surgery -

0:26:120:26:16

a fat-hoovering procedure costing him over ten grand.

0:26:160:26:19

What a body. I mean, wow, what a body.

0:26:210:26:25

It looks like a child's drawing.

0:26:250:26:27

It's really strange.

0:26:270:26:30

I don't think there's any man with a body like mine and Darryn's

0:26:300:26:34

who watched that and went, "Wow, life-changer."

0:26:340:26:37

It's been a life-changing thing and, at the end of the day, I'm proud as punch.

0:26:370:26:41

With the amount of girls stopping me in the streets saying, "Show us your abs," it's been a bit of a winner.

0:26:410:26:47

'Darryn is working it.'

0:26:470:26:49

Not just proud of showing off his body, Darryn also took delight

0:26:490:26:52

in revealing he's had more than just a few notches on his bedpost.

0:26:520:26:57

'Darryn is regaling the housemates with another tale from his glory days.'

0:26:570:27:03

-You had 12 women in bed with you?

-It was a good night.

0:27:030:27:07

Wow, I thought there was other guys involved. I'm... 12 in a bed?

0:27:070:27:11

It was those crazy days when I was... Well, I was a lot older than you, actually.

0:27:110:27:16

Old enough to know better, you man slag.

0:27:160:27:19

# Sexy boy... #

0:27:190:27:23

I think Darryn Lyons' lady-man ability is all in the mohican.

0:27:230:27:28

It's like his mojo, know what I mean? What he does is, like an avatar,

0:27:280:27:32

he gets the end of his hair and attaches it to the female's hair

0:27:320:27:35

and then they make a love connection and that's how they mate.

0:27:350:27:39

I was quite surprised to hear that Darryn Lyons is a bit of a ladies' man -

0:27:390:27:42

then I found out it was actually Darryn who'd said that.

0:27:420:27:45

So what has Lyons the Lothario given us in 2011?

0:27:450:27:49

It's all pink dressing gowns,

0:27:490:27:52

crazy hair and chiselled torsos.

0:27:520:27:55

And if that's what I've brought to the celebrity world as the most annoying celebrity in 2011,

0:27:550:28:00

well, giddy up.

0:28:000:28:02

Riding high in our chart this year, and not for her music,

0:28:020:28:06

it's the queen mother of pop, Madonna.

0:28:060:28:08

Never shy of getting what she wants, when Madonna attempts to

0:28:090:28:13

give us more than three minutes of pop, it's always a worry.

0:28:130:28:16

Madonna... Eugh.

0:28:180:28:21

What more can you say?

0:28:210:28:23

Last year, she was playing fashion designer with daughter Lourdes,

0:28:230:28:27

but this year, Madonna has been making a movie.

0:28:270:28:29

# We're making a movie Isn't it groovy?

0:28:290:28:32

# Welcome to my house. #

0:28:320:28:34

Writing and directing W./E. -

0:28:340:28:36

a modern biopic about Edward and Mrs Simpson - in London this year,

0:28:360:28:39

Madonna had hoped looking rough behind a camera

0:28:390:28:42

would give her movie the credibility she so desperately craved.

0:28:420:28:45

The whole process has been extremely...um...

0:28:450:28:49

I don't know, inspiring, exhausting. I've never worked so hard in my life.

0:28:490:28:53

But all that hard work wasn't enough to impress the critics.

0:28:530:28:58

So whilst trying to woo the public and the press

0:28:580:29:01

into seeing her dodgy directorial debut,

0:29:010:29:03

she spectacularly managed to annoy everyone when a nice man offered her a flower.

0:29:030:29:08

This flower for you. You're my princess, thank you so much. I love you.

0:29:100:29:14

On receiving the floral gift, Madge promptly discarded it

0:29:140:29:18

and was overheard telling the person next to her...

0:29:180:29:21

How rude!

0:29:230:29:25

# I beg your pardon... #

0:29:250:29:27

The guy is lucky

0:29:270:29:29

Madonna didn't take the hydrangea and slap him across the face.

0:29:290:29:32

Don't give me some broken-down 4 flower, give me a bouquet.

0:29:320:29:35

-Madonna, where's the flowers?

-Oh, my assistant took them.

0:29:350:29:38

'I didn't know she loathed them.'

0:29:380:29:40

Maybe that was my mistake

0:29:400:29:41

not to read beforehand that she loathed them.

0:29:410:29:44

I just don't see it myself.

0:29:440:29:46

I mean, what's a hydrangea ever done to anyone?

0:29:460:29:48

It's fairly inoffensive. Whatever happened to good old-fashioned manners, Madonna?

0:29:480:29:53

As a human, I was upset because I put all my love into the gift

0:29:530:29:57

and she put it on the floor and didn't care about it.

0:29:570:30:00

She's a big star.

0:30:000:30:01

She should be grateful for any attention she receives.

0:30:010:30:05

This is a good lesson for Madonna.

0:30:050:30:07

I think it was all set up

0:30:070:30:09

just to keep people from talking about the terrible, terrible movie.

0:30:090:30:12

Of course, W./E. stands for Wallis and Edward,

0:30:120:30:15

but I think for most of us it stands for, "Whatever, Madonna."

0:30:150:30:19

At number seven, it's Roo-KnowWho.

0:30:200:30:23

The really annoying thing about Wayne is that he's a pro-footballer.

0:30:260:30:30

He makes shedloads of money.

0:30:300:30:33

He is the idol of millions

0:30:330:30:35

and he's got no idea about how lucky he is.

0:30:350:30:39

It's been yet another 12 months of annoying antics for our Wayne.

0:30:390:30:42

Last year, it might have been all about prostitutes and contract disputes,

0:30:420:30:46

this year, though, it's a case of...

0:30:460:30:48

# Hair we go, hair we go, hair we go. #

0:30:480:30:52

Wayne Rooney's hair transplant.

0:30:520:30:54

If you've got that much money at your disposal,

0:30:540:30:57

I would have gone, "There's a million, find Michael Bolton, do him..."

0:30:570:31:00

# Tell me how am I supposed to live without you? #

0:31:000:31:05

Put his head on your head. Amazing head of hair.

0:31:050:31:08

Timeless as well.

0:31:080:31:10

But a hair transplant hardly seems the stuff of a no-nonsense footballer

0:31:100:31:14

in his mid-20s, so are we being a bit vain, Rooney?

0:31:140:31:17

It's not like he's doing it to pick up women. He's Wayne Rooney.

0:31:170:31:20

He'll buy a girl if he wants one.

0:31:200:31:22

He'll buy a granny, you know what he's like. It doesn't matter.

0:31:220:31:25

Just go to the OAP shop, that's like Toys R Us for him.

0:31:250:31:27

Wayne Rooney sold out the bald brothers, but he's got more swagger on the pitch.

0:31:270:31:31

He's doing a lot better. It's given him a bit of a spring in his step.

0:31:310:31:35

With the new thatch giving Wayne a Samson-like strut,

0:31:360:31:39

summer saw him take the missus for a dirty weekend, but being annoying celebrity glampers,

0:31:390:31:44

their trip to Glastonbury wasn't the typical festival experience.

0:31:440:31:48

He spent ten grand on a campervan. It's only a third

0:31:480:31:51

of what he spent on his hair,

0:31:510:31:52

so I suppose it's a wise investment for him.

0:31:520:31:54

I like the fact he needed security

0:31:540:31:56

to take him to the toilet as well. I don't know if that was to protect him

0:31:560:32:00

or just that he still needs someone to wipe his backside at his age.

0:32:000:32:03

At number six, it's Britain's most celebrated bottom.

0:32:050:32:09

April 29th, 2011. The nation gathered around the television

0:32:120:32:15

to see our future king and queen tie the knot.

0:32:150:32:19

Up until then, all the talk had been about Kate's dress. Then this happened.

0:32:190:32:23

# I see you, baby

0:32:230:32:26

# Shaking that ass... #

0:32:260:32:28

I was watching the Royal Wedding and there was an audible gasp

0:32:280:32:31

when Pippa's rear made its first appearance.

0:32:310:32:35

She wore a dress that was clearly designed

0:32:350:32:39

to maximise her ass.

0:32:390:32:41

And that was our introduction to poor old Pippa Middleton,

0:32:410:32:44

who suddenly found she'd become the owner of the most famous and annoying bum of the year.

0:32:440:32:50

Pippa's bum just took over the nation.

0:32:500:32:53

As soon as she stepped out of that car and shook her booty,

0:32:530:32:56

that was it, we were all going crazy.

0:32:560:32:58

There was a lot of hype that day.

0:32:580:33:00

Everything got blown out of proportion.

0:33:000:33:02

If you're a lady and marrying the heir to the throne,

0:33:020:33:04

this must be one of your worst nightmares.

0:33:040:33:07

Your sister and her arse are the most famous thing of the day.

0:33:070:33:10

In fact, such was the instant fame of Pippa and her bum

0:33:100:33:13

that by the end of the day,

0:33:130:33:16

her royal hotness had many a loyal subject.

0:33:160:33:19

As soon as Pippa Middleton stepped out of the Rolls-Royce

0:33:190:33:21

at Westminster Abbey, my friends and I were all united in the fact

0:33:210:33:25

that, yeah, she was pretty stunning.

0:33:250:33:27

Just as a joke, I started a Facebook page with the title

0:33:270:33:30

Pippa Middleton Arse Appreciation Society.

0:33:300:33:33

Every time I refreshed the page we were getting ten more people,

0:33:330:33:37

20 more people, 30 more people.

0:33:370:33:39

I think it had about 40,000 likes by the end of the first day,

0:33:390:33:43

and it just went crazy.

0:33:430:33:45

It wasn't just frisky Facebookers who went potty for Pippa.

0:33:450:33:49

After the wedding, newspapers and magazines grabbed hold of her bottom and wouldn't let go.

0:33:490:33:55

I really felt sorry for her, because she's getting papped all the time, and she's so not ready for it.

0:33:550:34:00

The fact that she can walk out in a dodgy-looking dress and get on the front page

0:34:000:34:05

of five national newspapers is over the top to me.

0:34:050:34:08

We know more about her bum than we do about her.

0:34:080:34:12

It's more of a celebrity entity than the rest of her.

0:34:120:34:15

And it's not just the UK that seems to have developed an annoying obsession

0:34:150:34:19

with Britain's best-known bum.

0:34:190:34:21

P-Middy has also been getting plenty of interest from our friends across the pond.

0:34:210:34:26

Americans clearly have a bum fixation.

0:34:260:34:28

Now apparently Pippa's, as opposed to Kim Kardashian or J-Lo's,

0:34:280:34:32

is the number one most-requested bum in the plastic surgeon's office.

0:34:320:34:36

Having seen Pippa, they come in, they want the smaller,

0:34:360:34:41

more rounded, tight, fit buttocks,

0:34:410:34:44

and it stimulated a lot of interest around the world.

0:34:440:34:48

Back on home turf, perhaps all this irritating fuss over Pippa and her bum is finally starting to die down.

0:34:480:34:53

Faced with the conundrum of who should win Rear of the Year UK,

0:34:530:34:56

voters handed the prize to an old favourite, offering one from the bottom and two from the top.

0:34:560:35:02

I can't understand why Carol Vorderman beat Pippa Middleton

0:35:020:35:05

to Rear of the Year this year,

0:35:050:35:06

because I thought that the campaign we put together was strong enough.

0:35:060:35:10

But maybe next year.

0:35:100:35:11

Rising high on our list in more ways than one this year is Charlie Sheen.

0:35:130:35:18

Hollywood is no stranger to the celebrity meltdown,

0:35:220:35:27

but this year Two And A Half Men star Charlie Sheen had one to beat them all.

0:35:270:35:32

Charlie Sheen is just a magnified example of the mad person

0:35:350:35:38

you meet on the bus you don't sit beside,

0:35:380:35:40

except he's a Hollywood star.

0:35:400:35:41

Charlie! Charlie! What do you think of all this?

0:35:410:35:45

'He is what celebrity is supposed to be.'

0:35:450:35:48

It's nothing less than huge.

0:35:480:35:50

He's entertaining and he just keeps us watching.

0:35:500:35:55

This year, the wild antics of the playboy, and his not one, but two Playgirl goddesses

0:35:590:36:03

forced production on his hit sitcom Two And A Half Men to grind to a halt.

0:36:030:36:07

With time on his hands, Sheen turned to Twitter to explain himself,

0:36:070:36:11

and in just over 24 hours

0:36:110:36:12

had over one million followers not understanding a single word.

0:36:120:36:17

I don't know, any suggestions?

0:36:170:36:19

'He was on every website,'

0:36:190:36:20

on every TV show. He was talking to everybody,

0:36:200:36:23

doing crazy things every single day. It got to the point

0:36:230:36:26

where, actually, viewers and readers became a little bit bored of him.

0:36:260:36:30

For his next trick, Charlie decided the time was right

0:36:300:36:32

to insult the man who was paying him a cool 2 million an episode to make people laugh.

0:36:320:36:37

But sitcom boss, Chuck Lorre, delivered the ultimatum punchline and gave him the sack.

0:36:370:36:42

To criticise the people that were paying him so publicly was remarkable

0:36:420:36:47

and, to be honest, I think I was a bit jealous, because we've all wanted to do that.

0:36:470:36:52

We've all wanted to just stand drunk and shout at the people that pay our wages.

0:36:520:36:57

Bouncing back from the sack, Charlie's new mantra may have been "winning",

0:37:020:37:06

but he was clearly losing the plot.

0:37:060:37:09

No-one knew exactly what he was winning,

0:37:090:37:11

but, when he announced a tour of his one-man show, The Torpedo Of Truth,

0:37:110:37:16

thousands turned up to find out.

0:37:160:37:17

Charlie! It's for you, buddy!

0:37:190:37:21

I'm gonna name my baby "Charlie"!

0:37:210:37:24

Whoo! Hey!

0:37:240:37:26

Anybody else would listen, you know. It's not how this thing works.

0:37:260:37:31

AUDIENCE SHOUTING

0:37:310:37:32

Anyway...

0:37:320:37:33

AUDIENCE JEERING

0:37:330:37:35

The people who went and saw him were pissed when there was nothing to watch.

0:37:350:37:41

You didn't know that there was no show.

0:37:410:37:44

What talent does he have? He was written for his entire life.

0:37:440:37:48

The way I see it, Charlie owes me 109 bucks.

0:37:480:37:51

-Why's that?

-Because it was kind of a waste of time.

0:37:510:37:54

He's not winning. I lost by going to this. I lost. I'm losing.

0:37:540:37:59

Charlie Sheen was asked if he was bipolar.

0:38:010:38:03

His answer was to say, "I'm bi-winning."

0:38:030:38:08

"I win here, I win there, I win everywhere"

0:38:080:38:10

I think he has come out of this a winner.

0:38:100:38:13

Charlie's had the last laugh. After suing the makers of Two And A Half Men for mental anguish,

0:38:130:38:18

he's come away with a settlement of 125 million.

0:38:180:38:22

Charlie Sheen, I am sure, will be back on our TV screens very, very soon

0:38:240:38:28

and he could even become one of the highest-paid members of Hollywood yet again.

0:38:280:38:34

Up next, an appearance from another old friend here on this show.

0:38:340:38:39

For Ashley Cole, 2011 has been an annoying year of guns, girls

0:38:400:38:44

and an unlikely reconciliation in the summer with the ex.

0:38:440:38:48

Cheryl Cole's had a pretty tough time.

0:38:510:38:53

She was very publicly humiliated, being kicked off the X Factor in the USA.

0:38:530:38:58

The thing that she needs is a bit of stability.

0:38:580:39:00

Yes, Ashley Cole's been a rat but, if you're going to offer her love and friendship, so be it.

0:39:000:39:06

But, of course, Ashley being Ashley, it wasn't to last.

0:39:060:39:09

The main reason so many of us hate Ashley Cole

0:39:090:39:12

is because of what he's done to our beloved Cheryl

0:39:120:39:14

and none of us wanted her to take Ashley back and she did, only to be let down by the guy again.

0:39:140:39:19

What is the matter with him? Cheryl Cole for God's sake,

0:39:190:39:22

giving you a fifth, sixth, seventh chance

0:39:220:39:24

and you do daft stuff with models from nightclubs. What's the matter with you?

0:39:240:39:28

I can't understand him! I can't get me head round him.

0:39:310:39:35

I'm annoyed. I'm furious with...

0:39:350:39:39

I'm just shaking with rage.

0:39:390:39:41

Cheryl Cole, she's hot.

0:39:410:39:44

You're punching well above your weight

0:39:440:39:46

and you still can't treat her right.

0:39:460:39:48

Just what on Earth goes through your head?

0:39:480:39:52

You cheated on one of the most beautiful women in the world

0:39:520:39:55

with a set of absolute skanks, who went and then made money off it.

0:39:550:39:59

I hope you feel proud of yourself.

0:39:590:40:01

But it wasn't only Ashley's love life where a bit of banging landed him in trouble.

0:40:010:40:06

Back in February, he got it very, very wrong

0:40:070:40:10

when he was told he needed to practise his shooting.

0:40:100:40:13

Ashley Cole was reportedly holding the rifle

0:40:130:40:15

when he accidentally fired it.

0:40:150:40:18

He shot someone who was standing 5ft away.

0:40:180:40:21

Ashley Cole took the most powerful air gun you can buy without a licence into training.

0:40:240:40:28

And he's just wandering around in the changing rooms

0:40:280:40:32

and shoots the 18-year-old work-experience guy, Tom Cowan.

0:40:320:40:38

That's surely proof the guy's not all there at all.

0:40:380:40:40

Who would do that?

0:40:400:40:42

Apparently, sources say he was larking around, but what kind of lark

0:40:420:40:46

involves shooting the work experience with an air gun?

0:40:460:40:49

(TV REPORTER) Chelsea say they are dealing with the matter internally.

0:40:490:40:54

It's thought he'll be fined a quarter of a million by the club.

0:40:540:40:57

Though that's just two weeks' salary for the player.

0:40:570:41:00

Imagine you go to work and accidentally shoot Sonia from accounts.

0:41:000:41:03

You know that's game over, career finished, probably a bit of time inside.

0:41:030:41:07

Not Ashley Cole, though.

0:41:070:41:08

I think what it was is that he went into football training

0:41:080:41:12

thinking, "I want a change of career, I'm gonna try athletics."

0:41:120:41:15

"In fact, I don't want to run, I want to be the guy who starts the race". Pow!

0:41:150:41:18

Whispering in at number three, it's the controversial subject of...

0:41:220:41:27

Sh.

0:41:270:41:28

..super-injunctions

0:41:280:41:30

and the growing list of celebrities that are taking them out like...

0:41:300:41:34

Sh.

0:41:340:41:35

I think you get the idea.

0:41:350:41:37

# It's oh so quiet. #

0:41:370:41:38

Super-injunctions are the new evil.

0:41:400:41:42

It should be the same for everybody -

0:41:420:41:44

if you want to play away and you're found out, you take the consequences.

0:41:440:41:48

The annoying thing about it is it proves that,

0:41:520:41:55

if you have a lot of money, you can try to protect your personal life.

0:41:550:41:58

If you don't have a lot of money, then it's fair game for newspapers.

0:41:580:42:02

Celebrities had it so easy

0:42:020:42:04

when they could simply pay huge sums of money to keep details

0:42:040:42:07

of their private lives safely locked away inside the British legal system.

0:42:070:42:11

Pop star Howard Donald, journalist Andrew Marr,

0:42:110:42:15

and presenter Jeremy Clarkson, have all been involved

0:42:150:42:18

in gagging girls with their big super-injunctions.

0:42:180:42:21

However, the most annoying case of super-injunctivitis this year

0:42:220:42:26

involved hotty Imogen Thomas and a player who can only be identified as "CTB".

0:42:260:42:31

But who is he?

0:42:310:42:33

CTB. Who is he?

0:42:350:42:37

Honestly, I really have no idea. Do you know?

0:42:370:42:40

If you don't know who CTB is,

0:42:400:42:43

er, he's the one that slept with Imogen Thomas.

0:42:430:42:45

He's a Premiership footballer and his name rhymes with "Brian".

0:42:450:42:51

It was the most expensive worst-kept secret

0:42:530:42:56

since the revelation that footballers like to sleep around.

0:42:560:42:59

We all knew who it was. We knew who it was for ages.

0:43:000:43:03

If I slept with Imogen Thomas, I would want the world to know.

0:43:050:43:09

I would be selling my selling my story!

0:43:090:43:11

I'd sell them pictures going, "Seriously, it actually happened!"

0:43:110:43:14

Eventually, the super-injunction was exposed, not by the courts but by 75,000 Twitter users.

0:43:170:43:23

People from the streets, or on social media networks said,

0:43:300:43:34

"You know what, we can say what we want and we've got that power now."

0:43:340:43:37

CTB tried to protect his hefty investment by threatening to sue the Twitter community.

0:43:390:43:44

He had the audacity to suggest that 75,000 Twitter users

0:43:440:43:47

might end up in court, so that he could protect a story, which, essentially, everybody knew about.

0:43:470:43:52

That is just... It's unenforceable.

0:43:520:43:55

You can't stop Twitter. You cannot stop Twitter.

0:43:550:43:57

As far as I'm concerned, getting outed on Twitter

0:43:570:44:00

was one of my highlights of 2011, because it's all he deserved.

0:44:000:44:06

Although Imogen Thomas lost her legal battle, and is still gagged to this day,

0:44:100:44:15

she has benefited from column inches and a revitalised career.

0:44:150:44:19

To be honest with you, the only annoying thing is

0:44:190:44:22

that Imogen Thomas is, you know, she's everywhere now.

0:44:220:44:25

She did this article going, "I feel I've been objectified,

0:44:250:44:28

"the way people are looking at me."

0:44:280:44:30

"My flesh has now been consumed by the public."

0:44:300:44:32

"I'm nothing but... I'm looked at as a slut and a sex object"

0:44:320:44:35

And the next paper, she was in swimwear

0:44:350:44:37

with a string up her arse

0:44:370:44:39

and, honestly, a camel toe like the army of Saudi Arabia. It was unbelievable.

0:44:390:44:42

"Stop objectifying me! Here's my vaj!"

0:44:420:44:45

So, what's the way forward for super-injunctions in 2012?

0:44:450:44:49

If you want to avoid the super-injunctions

0:44:490:44:52

and all the embarrassment, how about you just don't do shit?

0:44:520:44:55

How about that? How about you just behave?

0:44:550:44:57

I'd love to be doing more gagging orders.

0:44:570:45:00

I'd love to be up to my eyeballs in gagging orders.

0:45:000:45:02

The truth is super-injunctions are really annoying

0:45:020:45:07

and I really wish I could talk about them, but I can't!

0:45:070:45:10

At number two, it's a real front-page shocker.

0:45:100:45:14

It's been a ticking time bomb for some years,

0:45:150:45:18

but in 2011 the scandal of phone hacking finally exploded.

0:45:180:45:21

It's a story with so many candidates for most annoying.

0:45:210:45:25

We could fill a programme trying to work out who was the worst,

0:45:250:45:29

but there's no doubt which tabloid newspaper was singled out for the whole sorry mess.

0:45:290:45:35

After 168 years of newspaper history, tonight,

0:45:350:45:38

staff have been putting the finishing touches to the last edition of the News Of The World

0:45:380:45:42

because of the latest phone-hacking allegations.

0:45:420:45:45

News Of The World boss Rupert Murdoch made the shock decision

0:45:450:45:48

to pull the plug on Britain's best selling newspaper

0:45:480:45:51

when it was revealed in July that the tabloid's rife illegal phone hacking

0:45:510:45:55

extended to victims of crime.

0:45:550:45:57

It began with the devastating allegation that Milly Dowler's

0:45:570:46:00

phone messages were listened to and deleted by a tabloid investigator.

0:46:000:46:06

There's no defence for what News Of The World did. Not only was it illegal, but it was immoral.

0:46:060:46:11

Just the audacity that they thought they could get away with this.

0:46:110:46:15

They thought they could invade anyone's privacy, no matter the hell

0:46:150:46:19

they were going through. I'm not sure where they are, but hopefully it's cold

0:46:190:46:23

and they're locked up. Yeah. But they're not, of course.

0:46:230:46:26

Latest figures suggest the News Of The World listened in on over 5,000 individuals.

0:46:300:46:34

But it wasn't just their mucky phone hacking habits that annoyed us.

0:46:340:46:39

It was also the cosy relationship the paper and its owners enjoyed

0:46:390:46:43

with the powers that be.

0:46:430:46:44

Which may explain why it's taken so long for the scandal to become public.

0:46:440:46:50

REPORTER: Revealed today, the extraordinary links between two British institutions,

0:46:500:46:54

Scotland Yard and News International.

0:46:540:46:57

MPs described it as a revolving door between the two organisations,

0:46:570:47:01

each acting like a job-placement scheme for the other.

0:47:010:47:04

What's annoying is the fact that nobody did anything about it.

0:47:040:47:08

The newspapers didn't do anything about it. The police didn't do anything about it.

0:47:080:47:12

The politicians didn't do anything about it. It's just rancid.

0:47:120:47:15

REPORTER: What about the current occupant of No 10?

0:47:150:47:18

He's never been photographed with Mr Murdoch, even when he was invited to visit him,

0:47:180:47:22

discreetly, just days after the last election.

0:47:220:47:25

With the full extent of phone hacking becoming clear,

0:47:250:47:28

politicians were given a chance in July to grill Rupert Murdoch about his knowledge of the scandal.

0:47:280:47:33

But the occasion ended in farce when stand up comedian Jonnie Marbles stepped forward

0:47:330:47:37

to let the News Of The World boss know exactly what he thought about him.

0:47:370:47:41

I was the guy who threw a pie in Rupert Murdoch's face.

0:47:410:47:48

The foam on a plate was delivered by a member of the public,

0:47:480:47:51

who was rewarded with a right hook from wife Wendy.

0:47:510:47:56

The News Of The World spent so much time telling everyone else in the world off.

0:47:560:48:00

At the same time, they hacked 5,000 people. They broke the law over and over again.

0:48:000:48:04

It shows the moral hypocrisy on the part of the tabloids.

0:48:040:48:07

You know, Rupert Murdoch's this almost Bond villianesque figure.

0:48:070:48:11

I had a plan in my head to try and say something sort of witty and acerbic,

0:48:110:48:14

but what I ended up saying was, "You naughty billionaire," which didn't really cover it.

0:48:140:48:20

But, for some, Jonnie's gesture was almost as annoying as hacking itself.

0:48:200:48:26

I thought he was a bit of a dick. It was just getting good

0:48:260:48:29

and he kind of let Murdoch off the hook a bit.

0:48:290:48:31

Who goes round assaulting 80-year-old men, anyway? Grow up, mate.

0:48:310:48:35

He threw shaving foam in Rupert Murdoch's face,

0:48:350:48:38

where it's meant to go.

0:48:380:48:39

It's like throwing a custard pie in someone's mouth.

0:48:390:48:42

Despite spending two weeks in jail for common assault,

0:48:420:48:45

Jonnie makes no apology for his stunt.

0:48:450:48:48

My only real regret from the whole thing

0:48:480:48:50

is that I pled guilty at the trial, because it would've been real fun

0:48:500:48:54

to call Rupert Murdoch as a witness and just do it all over again.

0:48:540:48:57

The scandal rumbles on.

0:48:580:49:01

Most annoying of 2012? Hold the front page.

0:49:010:49:06

Well, at least on certain newspapers.

0:49:060:49:08

And that's almost your lot. It's been another year full of maddening moments.

0:49:150:49:19

'We've been irked by Essex girls.'

0:49:190:49:21

Shut up.

0:49:210:49:22

-'And Geordie boys.'

-I just want to get them pissed, get them back and bang them.

0:49:220:49:26

'Left astounded by celebrity weddings...'

0:49:260:49:29

Shutting down a whole village does not make you the lady of the manor.

0:49:290:49:34

'..and fallen fashionistas.'

0:49:340:49:36

Oh, my God. Anti-Semitism's so hot, right now!

0:49:360:49:38

-'Every single one of them managed to irritate us.'

-Nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh, nuh!

0:49:380:49:43

We can safely say that none of them annoyed the nation

0:49:430:49:45

as much as the mob who rampaged their way to our top spot.

0:49:450:49:49

August 2011 saw us shocked by mayhem and destruction

0:49:540:49:57

on a scale not seen on English streets for 30 years.

0:49:570:50:01

Almost every shop on this high street has been trashed and looted

0:50:030:50:07

and it's only in the past few minutes that the police have arrived in any numbers.

0:50:070:50:12

Anger in Tottenham at the fatal shooting by police

0:50:150:50:18

of young father Mark Duggan

0:50:180:50:20

led to rioting in the area that then fireballed out of control throughout the capital.

0:50:200:50:26

I don't know why people... Oh, my God! I don't know why people do this.

0:50:270:50:32

You don't think these sort of things would happen especially in, you know, leafy Enfield.

0:50:340:50:39

There were so many young 14, 15, 16-year-old youths just everywhere.

0:50:410:50:48

My TV was stuck on News 24 and Sky News

0:50:500:50:53

going back and forth, getting the latest updates.

0:50:530:50:56

I think even missed EastEnders. I missed EastEnders to watch the news!

0:50:560:50:59

Over four nights, mobs of youths, some as young as 11 and 12,

0:51:010:51:04

ran rampage, using social networking as a means of encouraging others to loot and riot

0:51:040:51:09

as the disorder spread out of London to cities like Birmingham and Manchester.

0:51:090:51:14

The police can't do nothing.

0:51:140:51:16

So it's a like a freedom act, innit? Do whatever you want today, mate.

0:51:160:51:19

What was really annoying is that all over the Arab world,

0:51:210:51:24

young people were rising up and overturning their governments.

0:51:240:51:27

Our young people were standing around in designer sportswear, messaging on their Blackberrys,

0:51:270:51:33

talking about how hard done by they were

0:51:330:51:35

and rising up for a new pair of trainers and a fresh TV. Like...

0:51:350:51:39

They interviewed one girl and the question they asked was why are you doing this?

0:51:390:51:45

"Well, I had to get my taxes back, innit?"

0:51:450:51:47

This is a 15-year-old child.

0:51:470:51:49

People would text going, "Are you all right, mate?

0:51:490:51:52

"Cars are on fire, shops are being looted, people getting smashed up."

0:51:520:51:56

"Are you safe?"

0:51:560:51:58

So I would text back, "Can't talk now, trying on my brand-new pair of Nike Air High Tops."

0:51:580:52:04

With homes and cars destroyed,

0:52:080:52:10

it was surely time for Dave "Hug A Hoodie" Cameron to sort it out.

0:52:100:52:13

That got me the most angry. David Cameron's away on holiday.

0:52:150:52:19

What's going on, David? He has no excuse for that, no excuse. I'll never forgive him.

0:52:190:52:23

Not returning his calls at all.

0:52:230:52:24

On the front pages of the papers it was "Britain Burning"

0:52:290:52:32

and him just sipping a limonata on a terrace somewhere.

0:52:320:52:35

Tuscany, actually.

0:52:350:52:37

OK, so time for deputy Nick Clegg to step in.

0:52:370:52:40

No, Spain. The Home Secretary.

0:52:400:52:43

Switzerland. Get the Mayor, then.

0:52:430:52:45

Boris is still in Canada. Get him back here!

0:52:450:52:48

There was so much negativity that went on with the riots

0:52:520:52:55

that, being British, we had to make light of it.

0:52:550:52:58

We had to make something funny out of it. Some of the most hilarious things I heard about were the looters.

0:52:580:53:04

Someone running out of a Pound shop.

0:53:040:53:07

That has got to be the most rubbish loot ever.

0:53:070:53:10

A £1 multi-pack bag of crisps.

0:53:100:53:13

Running into a footwear shop and running out with six pairs of shoes

0:53:150:53:19

and being like, "Yeah!" But then they were all the left foot.

0:53:190:53:24

Some were tweeting on Twitter about what they were doing!

0:53:260:53:29

It taught us how stupid some people in London are.

0:53:320:53:34

If you're going to go and get something and get away with it,

0:53:340:53:37

and there's a chance you're gonna get caught, don't come and loot basmati rice. It doesn't make sense.

0:53:370:53:43

Did you see how pleased that kid was with it? He was trying to make it look really gangster.

0:53:430:53:48

That big bag of basmati

0:53:480:53:49

and him throwing, I think, the finger guns at it.

0:53:490:53:52

There is nothing gangster about basmati rice.

0:53:520:53:55

Pilau yes, we all know that(!) Safe. Down with that.

0:53:550:54:00

This will carry on for days, innit?

0:54:010:54:03

The many theories suggested as to the cause of this mid-summer madness

0:54:030:54:08

included over-long school holidays, rap music and violent video games.

0:54:080:54:12

Some scientists even claimed it was all down to geo-magnetic storms

0:54:120:54:16

hitting the Earth and affecting human behaviour.

0:54:160:54:19

We saw you and your friends smash in the windows of Dixons and you took a plasma.

0:54:190:54:23

"Yeah, but, that's because the planet got hit by a meteor, innit?"

0:54:230:54:27

That made me, like, t'ief a Samsung LED.

0:54:270:54:30

That's like going to court and saying,

0:54:300:54:32

"I'm sorry but Mystic Meg said that I must riot today,

0:54:320:54:35

"because I'm a Virgo

0:54:350:54:36

"and it says that the solar flares will cause me to smash in the window of a sports store".

0:54:360:54:41

Annoyed all the politicians were away topping up their tans,

0:54:430:54:46

the traumatised public took to Twitter to rally an army of their own.

0:54:460:54:49

I love the Twitter Clean Up Britain campaign.

0:54:490:54:52

I think it was really good

0:54:520:54:54

and I'm glad that that we had to come together by ourselves,

0:54:540:54:57

because we have the knowledge and strength, as Britonians, to come together

0:54:570:55:01

and sort out the mess the Government should sort out.

0:55:010:55:04

I think it's important to restore people's faith in mankind, basically.

0:55:040:55:09

It's beautiful to see that people actually do care.

0:55:090:55:11

When Boris finally did arrive, there were questions to be answered.

0:55:110:55:15

-CROWD: Where's your broom? Where's your broom?

-I just want to say thank you

0:55:150:55:19

to everybody who's come out here today to volunteer to help clear up the mess.

0:55:190:55:24

Thank you. You are the true spirit of this city.

0:55:240:55:27

THEY CHEER

0:55:270:55:30

So there you go. 2011's most annoying people taken to task.

0:55:420:55:47

-Thank you. It was a lot of fun.

-Brilliant. Thank you so much.

0:55:470:55:51

No doubt, next year will throw up some new additions to the most annoying hall of infamy.

0:55:510:55:56

All right. I'm done.

0:55:560:55:57

Girls Aloud are dusting off the cobwebs for their tenth anniversary tour.

0:55:570:56:01

England's underperforming footballers are off to the European Championship.

0:56:010:56:05

Then, of course, we have the Olympics to look forward to.

0:56:060:56:09

Here's to an annoying 2012.
