Cliff Richard made gravy on live TV and utterly confused a lot of people
Brexit, Leicester City winning the league, Donald Trump... 2016 has had its fair share of unexpected events.
But with just days remaining of the year, what happened on This Morning on Thursday was so random, it might just have topped everything that went before it.
Not only did viewers witness Jamie Oliver discussing the size of Phillip Schofield's chopper...
