If you’re yet to watch Bros: After the Screaming Stops, stop what you’re doing and do just that.

The music documentary sensation, which was shown as part of the London Film Festival in October, was broadcast on BBC4 over Christmas and has since become the talk of social media, with many branding it the new This Is Spinal Tap.

It follows twin brothers Matt and Luke Goss ahead of their reunion in 2017, after almost 25 years of barely speaking to one another, and features numerous memorable moments, including lines of dialogue such as “I made a conscious decision because of Stevie Wonder not to be superstitious“ and a rather odd moment which sees Matt decrying Britain's "laws" on playing with conkers.

The film begins with a bust-up between the brothers caused by a fight they had in rehearsals the day before. This particular showdown occurs in the green room of ITV Studios, just before they're due to be interviewed by Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford on breakfast show This Morning about their scheduled 02 Arena shows.

The row ends in disaster, with Matt almost squaring up to Luke before leaving the room in a tirade of F-words.

If you’re wondering whether the interview went ahead, it did – and as expected, it was rather awkward.

You can watch the full interview (via ShortList) below.
