There's just something about seeing Mel move and talk that is endlessly entertaining but I can't put my finger on it. Just really charismatic and mesmerizing.
Well said.
She has a wonderful, soft, kind nobility to her. Must be in the Giedroyc blood.
She is funny and soothing.
Watch her on Taskmaster :)) she’s lovely
She's comfortable in her own skin and isn't trying to be something she isn't like a lot of fake celebrities, that attitude gives her an air of confidence without being arrogant.
I knew it was true because it is a well established fact that Mel is batshit crazy.
I love that I’m at a level where I can find this random clip and automatically recognize it’s the same episode as THERE’S NOOOOOOOOOOO UNIVERSITY!!!!!!
"is it truth or is it a lie"
"well one or the other"
3:41 You can see the glow in her eyes when they get it wrong.
1:28 Aww, he genuinely looks sympathetic for her here.
The second she read that card I knew it was true, that woman is mad as a box of frogs and I love her for it
Mel Giedroyc is amazing. She's hilarious on Travel Man too.
1:19 Didn't know Michael Caine was the manager at the coffee bar.
Her bowie impression is fantastic.
RIP David Bowie
+Ryan King No, let him lie in one piece.
damn this comment is 5 yo already.. time's flying😔
I was thinking the same thing as Mitchell, her slobbering all over it a few times over! 😂
This is disgusting. Geez, Mel.
Poor baby
I love Mel , she is so funny
rob’s haircut is great
Yes cappuccino was popular in the Uk in the 80s it was made for the uk teasts
The boss who told Mel she wasn't pretty enough to wait tables can go to hell
“Well it’s one or the other” 😂😂😂
A rather muted applause for this one lol
Because its actually pretty rank
*David Bowie has left the chat*
Isn’t that a crime? lol
Isn't that an actual crime?
Nobody thinks this is fucked up?
I do! But then I’ve never worked in a food place. Perhaps this sort of thing goes on all the time? It’s still messed up though.
i would've done this too and no one can stop me if david bowie was ever in my presence ngl
she's so good looking
I would let her served me up front ;) she is quick, smart and funny lady
It wasn't an audition.
why are people clapping on such crazy behavior??
I have a mad crush on Mel. There, I said it. 🤣🤣🤣
well I just think Mel is cute. Cute cute cute
Is she any relative of His Highness Prince Giedroyc of Lithuania?
According to the Wikipedia page on the surname Giedroyć (because I am apparently a person who will go and search for stuff like this...) Grand Duke Traidenis of Lithuania adopted the title Prince of Giedraičiai in the late 13th C (if this is the Prince you are after), which is the earliest mention of this name. Mel (and her sister Coky) are 17th generation in one of the two coherent genealogies of this family. That said, it IS Wikipedia info.
Many thanks! She is a real aristocrat, then.
+nieson0727 I mean if you're skeptical of it (being from Wikipedia) you could just check the citation..
I seriously doubt this, because Mel's paternal family tree can't be found anywhere. Not even on the European peerage website, which is 99.5% accurate about these things. The only Giedroyc listed is Mel's sister Mary, and that's only because she married a baronet.
I think she actually might be! She mentions her dad being from Lithuania in the "Flying Chopstick" WILTY episode
Has this story ever been brought up on Bake-Off?
Those pre covid days, when licking someones cake was just a little bit icky and not some kind of assault.
I thought it was a euphemism tbh!!
In another episode I just watched, Bob Mortimer asked what “burying a badger” was a euphemism for and when I saw him here I was half expecting him to ask it again hahaha
Dear god Mel is lovably weird…in all fairness, this was in 1986 or 1987, she was 18, and it was different then.
I had a bit of trouble understanding her accent. I misheard cake. :)
Who would say Mel was not good enough to be seen. Sexy and smart.
Did they leave the heater on too high? Why is everyone red?
By laughing a lot?🙃
oh, that's just gross, Mel. Sorry.
O pop
Reaaaal Creepy to think of now that he's dead xD
If it's without permission, it's definitely more polite to lick a man's cake than to lick his anus (see clause 2.1.5c in the Official Etiquette Handbook, 3rd edition).

Just reverse the genders, and think about if this is a funny story or just the confession of a disgusting creep. Does anyone think this is in any way acceptable?
It definitely does sound a bit creepy, hence why it’s a noteworthy card on a truth or lie game show where there are eccentric and creepy stories read out every so often. I’m tempted to give Mel the benefit of the doubt here and blame it on her being young and perhaps a bit of a fanatic for a celebrity, which I think we can all relate to at some point or another; if we all had the rare opportunity to do something similar, I’m sure we’d hear about it happening much more. It’s a bit of a reckless and disgusting decision, but if that’s the most reckless and disgusting thing she’s ever done, then sure, I can laugh and move on, I guess. I might definitely be biased though, because I love Mel as a person and I’ve seen her in a few British panel shows. She seems to be such a lovely, kind, and encouraging lady.
It is creepy but it's also funny, they're not mutually exclusive. I can totally see someone like David Walliams coming on and saying he licked Madonna's dessert and it going down the same way.
