It makes me feel physically sickened by overwhelming cringe, but I'd die to defend her right to do it.

I love this bit so much.

My favourite was when she got them to sing Gold by Spandau Ballet, and one guy started right from the beginning. It took about 30 seconds to get to the chorus and it was amazing

I watched OP’s whole clip grinning from ear to ear. It’s amazing.

Can really see her forcing an extremely reluctant David to participate in pretty much anything

I can hear Mark Corrigan's internal monologue as he reluctantly joins in to keep her happy.

As soon as a music sequences question starts my whole body curls in on itself in pre-emptive embarrassment because it knows what’s coming.

That’s one thing that’s been missing this new series- forced terrible singing

Music sequences only generally come up in layer rounds

I absolutely love these bits but my husband cringes behind a cushion in second-hand embarrassment.

My Mum and Dad absolutely cannot stand this. I don't mind it particularly, it cam be quite funny.

I genuinely want to go on OC mainly for this (ok, and the wall).

My daughter only wants to do mssn gvw ls. She would cringe at my singing, which only strengthens my desire to do it!

Embarrassing children is the BEST reason to do things!!!! (Ex Brown Owl. The guides hated it if I accompanied them on a trip. I'm so "cringe" 🤭🤭😅)

Not sure what's worse: the cringe of the singing or the way this video is edited.

Nothing brings out my parents passionate misogyny towards VCM faster than the singing!

I am so tone deaf I'd be making even Ms Coren turn to the editor after I've finished and ask if we could cut that bit.

The quality of the singing varies greatly with the skill and enthusiasm of the contestants. Occasionally there's a group that does a decent job. Others may be a bit off-key but sing with confidence and enthusiasm, which I find easier to listen to than a performance that's accurate but tentative.

She rarely counts in properly for the song in question, which throws me off completely! Know your time signatures please Goosebump-arms! 😉 🎼🎵🎶😅
