Ruth Langsford and Johnny Vegas hilariously attempt iconic Ghost pottery scene on This Morning... with disastrous results
The sensual Ghost scene in which the late Patrick Swayze and Demi Moore shape pottery to the romantic sound of Unchained Melody has become one of the most iconic movie moments of all time.
And comedian Johnny Vegas and TV presenter Ruth Langsford left This Morning viewers in stitches on Friday as the unlikely duo attempted to recreate the scene live on air.
Viewers couldn't contain their laughter as pottery enthusiast Johnny, 46, tried to show the 58-year-old Loose Women star the ropes - with somewhat disastrous results.

Ruth was left rather red-faced as Johnny wrapped his arms around her and showed her how to work the wet clay - though the result was more mess than masterpiece.
Sharing their amusement on Twitter, one viewer quipped: 'lol Ruth and Johnny Vegas trying to do the pottery scene from the film ghost. Think eamonn doesn't know where to look or trying not to laugh.'
Another laughed: I’ve been in the house 5 mins and already daytime telly is excelling itself. @JohnnyVegasReal doing the Ghost pottery scene with @ruthlangsford, and @LindaRobson58 massaging suncream into @OfficialSting’s forehead. Like a weird dream #thismorning.'

'So much sexual talk with pottery #ThisMorning,' remarked a further.
Johnny has loved the craft since his youth - and even landed a judging spot on The Great Pottery Throw Down last year.
Defending the disastrous piece of pottery he managed to create with Ruth, he joked: 'I did a degree in Ceramics, it was a rushed item!’
