Catchphrase featured Richard Ayoade last night and the funnyman stirred up viewers on social media, with some claiming he was the ‘most annoying’ contestant the ITV game show had ever seen.
The comedian, 43, joined host Stephen Mulhern on the celebrity edition of the programme on Saturday (January 9) evening alongside former Coronation Street actress Katie McGlynn and presenter Joe Swash.
Richard has legions of fans for his unusual comedy style and wit, but it seems not everyone watching at home enjoyed it.
What did Celebrity Catchphrase viewers say about Richard Ayoade?
On Twitter, some called Richard “irritating” – and wondered if anyone else had irked them so much in all the show’s history.
