He’s the TV and radio personality known for his outrageous sense of humour.
But on Friday night, Grant Denyer, 40, may have taken things a little too far when he made a loosely veiled joke about masturbating on The Living Room – despite its child-friendly time slot.
Sitting a bowl of raw eggs on his lap, the Family Feud host was demonstrating how a new whisk worked, before things turned X-rated.
‘Just a straight up and down motion should do it’: TV and radio personality Grant Denyer outraged viewers on Friday, after making an X-rated gag while demonstrating how a whisk worked on The Living Room
‘Just a straight up and down motion should do it,’ Grant said, looking particularly red-faced.
‘The good thing about it is that it’s a lot easier to do,’ he continued, ‘It’s a lot easier on the arm and you can whisk with the energy of a teenager.’
At this point, the father-of-three appeared to be sending the Channel Ten TV audience into fits of laughter, with co-host Amanda Keller remarking: ‘What happens when you get tired?’
Very awkward! The radio host appeared quite red-faced while he realised what the motion appeared to simulate
‘You can just swap hands,’ the former weatherman quickly responded, which he then demonstrated.
He then said: ‘Or you can just use two hands.’
Appearing on the show alongside him, chef Miguel Maestre added: ‘I’m fascinated right now, this is flabbergasting.’
‘What do you do when you get tired?’: Co-host Amanda Keller appeared to get some mileage out of the X-rated joke as well
The segment, however, wasn’t all taken in good humour with a number of fans of the show slamming Grant, and characterising his behaviour as ‘childish’ and ‘tacky.’
‘Talk about dirty minds,’ one Facebook user wrote.
Another also slammed fun-loving Grant: ‘Gee Grant has certainly lowered the tone of the show – tacky & childish.’
Tacky! However, a number of viewers took to Facebook to vent their disapproval after the segment
Not funny! One fan even attacked the presenter saying he’s as talented as a ‘dirty dishcloth’
Not so humorous! One fan even wrote ‘talk about dirty minds,’ appearing to not be happy with the light-hearted segment
Another user, however, went one stop further saying he was ‘as talented as a dirty dishcloth,’ and that she hoped, ‘Dr Chris comes back ASAP.’
Grant, however, was not without his fans with a slew of opposing comments in support of the ‘hilarious segment.’
‘You ppl have no sence of humour [sic],’ one fan retorted.
On Twitter, the segment also got a lot of traction, with a number of viewers replying in support: ‘He’s obviously been practising for a long time.’
‘He’s obviously been practising for a long time!’: While other fans hit back on social media, appearing to find the lighter side of it all
