Gogglebox stars Giles Wood and Mary Killen left fans in hysterics when they discussed the possibility of using onions as a lubricant.
The bonkers theory came as the pair were viewing an episode of Miriam and Alan: Lost In Scotland, where Miriam Margolyes and Alan Cumming chow down on raw onions.
Alan is seen reading out the sexual benefits of onions to Miriam – sparking a very interesting response from Mary when Giles questions what they might be.
He asked: “An aphrodisiac?”
His TV-loving partner then responded to the question with an intriguing take on what the sexual health benefits may be.

She said: “Well, that’s about the only sexual benefit there could be, isn’t it? You wouldn’t use it as a lubricant or anything?”
Giles swiftly interrupted her fumbling over his words before he blurted out a rather curt put-down.
He swiped: “Mary, please, have some sense of decorum.”
Meanwhile, Alan confirmed that onions are indeed an aphrodisiac as he told Miriam they are extremely beneficial for the libido.

He said: “An aphrodisiac, it increases libido and strength in the reproductive organs.”
Fans on Twitter also couldn’t believe their eyes as the bizarre segment played out.
One wrote: “I love Giles and Mary. ‘Have some sense of decorum, Mary.’ Hahahahaha.”
Another added: “You wouldn’t use an onion as a lubricant? Has she tried?”
A third laughed: “Onions as a lubricant… what on earth?! haha.”

Elsewhere Pete Sandiford was seen attempting to munch a raw onion himself, but very quickly failed at the challenge and spat it out into his tea mug.
However, some fans disagreed with the general repulsion among the Goggleboxers at the idea of eating raw onions.
One posted: “What is wrong with this #Gogglebox lot… raw onion is yum.”
Another agreed: “I love raw red onion… but not eating it like an apple.”
