- Contestant Peter Marsh was hosting final night of TV cooking contest
- Had fallen out with rival Jane, who he claimed tried to sabotage his night
- When he discovered she had won and he was last he had huge meltdown
- The episode aired on January 4, 2015 and had viewers cringing with laughter
Not everyone may remember exactly what they were doing on this week in January last year, but avid Come Dine With Me fans certainly do.
This week marks the one year anniversary of the most awkward moment ever on the Channel 4 reality show when host Peter Marsh had an almighty meltdown after finding out he hadn't won the contest.
He turned on the winner, rival cook Jane Smith, and unleashed a furious rant, telling her she had 'all the grace of a reversing dump trunk without any tyres on!'
People flocked to Twitter to share their memories of the episode after one user named Luke Bailey helpfully tweeted a clip as a reminder, with one branding the moment 'TV gold'.
Salesman Peter Marsh (pictured), was left fuming when rival cook Jane was voted the host of the week in the Channel 4 contest, and he finished last
He had an epic meltdown after losing and telling the winner she he had 'all the grace of reversing dump trunk without any tyres' - then ordering her out of his home
'I just realised it's the one year anniversary of the greatest Come Dine With Me moment of all time - if you've never seen it, watch it now,' Luke said, sharing the clip..
'I remember making my family watch this because it was so beautifully unbearable,' shared one fan.
Another added: 'Awkward and hilarious in equal measure.'
Even Ricky Gervais got a kick out of the clip: 'That's the type of awkward I can only aspire to in fiction.'
The reality TV show sees strangers take turns to throw dinner parties for each other, rating the hosts out of ten.
But when the 44-year-old salesman realises he'd placed last, only receiving 14 out of the maximum 30 points from his fellow contestants, he launched into a terrifying rant at winner Jane Smith, 36.
He responded by telling the policewoman, that she had won - and then accused her of deliberately sabotaging his night.
Breathing heavily, Peter, who is believed to live in East Oxfordshire with his husband Richard, raged: 'Enjoy the money. I hope it makes you very happy. Dear Lord. What a sad little life Jane.
After announcing he was last, Peter began shaking his head at Jane, who responded by saying she had no idea why he was looking her way
She then shared a hug with Charlotte, as fellow contestant Adam sits looking as if he would rather be anywhere else
'You ruined my night completely just so you could have the money.
'I hope now you will spend it on getting some lessons in grace and decorum because you have all the grace of reversing dump trunk without any tyres on!'
One of the other contestants, Charlotte - who was sitting awkwardly with Jane and the other male contestant, Adam, on a squashed sofa - said she did not understand what he meant.
Peter and Jane are seen arguing over the table on the final night of the cooking competition and the atmosphere quickly turned sour
Jane was all smiles when she got outside and celebrated her £1,000 prize after coming first despite Peter's reaction
That retort only fuelled Peter's outburst even more.
He responded: 'Well you wouldn't would you? Let's be honest, there's nobody in there, love.'
Peter then concluded: 'So Jane, take your money and get off my property!'
Mr Marsh who had served a pecorino salad, slow-roasted rib of beef and a trio of desserts, told the camera: ‘It’s a travesty that I didn’t win, an utter travesty.
The top three - Adam, Jane and Charlotte - were able to finally celebrate after getting outside Peter's home
Viewers who watched the episode when it aired exactly a year ago labelled the episode as one of the 'best ever'
‘The best food, the best presentation, the best table and I got graded under Adam, who produced a plate of vomit, under Charlotte who served up rancid chewy pork and under-cooked brownie. So I lose and she wins. I hope she enjoys her money.’
The three other contestants, Adam Mastroianni, Charlotte Hughes and Jane, were forced to celebrate with champagne outside his house.
Viewers watching at the time said it was one of the best episodes of the Channel 4 show: 'I'm watching Come Dine With Me on +1 because I just want to watch that angry man again. Best episode ever!!! He was brutal.'
Another added: 'Because you have all the grace of a reversing dump truck without any wheels on it. Haha can't stop watching that Come Dine With Me.'
