Bros fans were left cringing after they were forced to try and explain who the popular 80s group are to their children, following their surprise appearance at the Brit Awards.
Twin brothers Matt and Luke Goss made a shock return to the prestigious awards show after 30 years to present at Wednesday night's ceremony.
Their appearance, which saw them try and fail to get a huge cheer from the crowd, left some young fans baffled.
One fan wrote: “Trying to explain who Bros are to the kids. Well, not quite as big as 1Direction but bigger than, erm, than ... have you heard of Brother Beyond?? #Brits.”
Another tweeted: “Wow, no one at the O2 cares about Bros do they?”
A third added: “Bros trying to get people to cheer... tragic! The crowd were born about twenty years too late to know who the hell you even are guys!”
Other viewers were left in awe of the pair, with some saying it’s the first time the show has been “worth watching”.
One excited viewer wrote: “Ok so Bros just won the Brits.”
Another commented: “OMG BROS @mattgoss and @LukeGoss at the Brits! First time it’s been worth watching in 20 years! I have finally heard of a band on there.”
Despite the mixed reaction, the pair were more than happy with the response to their appearance, deeming it “amazing.”
Speaking at the show, Matt said: “It’s been amazing, the love we’ve received in this country has been amazing. We got in from America yesterday and everyone has been really lovely to us.”
Whitehall left Brits viewers in stitches after he mocked the brothers in a series of digs at their now viral BBC documentary, After the Screaming Stops.
Spelling out each letter he joked: “Are you glad to be H O M E at the B R I T S?”
The comedian went on to add that the pair should “speak about getting the kids out there not to wear protection.”
The cringe-worthy moment concluded with host Whitehall pulling out a conker on a string while making a crude joke on the pair’s “conkers” being “bigger” than his in reference to a discussion from the documentary.
