Hosted by Chris Evans, TFI Friday was a huge TV hit in the late 90s thanks to its mixture of music, stars and entertainment.
It was never short of unexpected moments, including the famous snog between Kylie and Ginger Spice.
A clip showing their kiss was shared to Instagram and showed how the pair were sitting opposite each other at a table before embarking on an intense arm wrestle.
As the pair battled it out, they began leaning in closer to each other and ultimately locked lips.
They then laughed and sat back before coming in together for a quick embrace.
“Back in ’99, pop royalty collided on TFI Friday when Geri Halliwell and Kylie Minogue shared a surprise kiss on live TV,” wrote the 90s TV Legacy Instagram account on the post.
Many people reacted to the video, including TV producer Nathan Eastwood, who was working on TFI Friday at the time.
“I had the job of asking Kylie to do the arm wrestle. She was so lovely, just said of course. The kiss wasn’t planned,” he wrote in the comments.
Other people who remembered the moment happening as they watched live also shared their thoughts.
“Watched it live, classic TV,” commented one person.
Another added: “I remember thinking ‘this is the best day of my life’ watching that as a kid.”
And a third wrote: “Late 90s early 00s was peak humanity and I will not be told any different.”
Kylie herself opened up about the kiss in 2012 when chatting to media outlet, Pride Source.
“That’s true, I hadn’t thought about that… We never discussed it – the kissing or anything. It just all happened,” she said.

Emmerdale have shared a first look at next week’s episodes after a huge twist that confirmed John Sugden’s victim Mackenzie Boyd was still alive on the ITV soap
A new Emmerdale clip reveals the fallout to the bombshell that Mackenzie Boyd is still alive on the ITV soap. He appeared to be murdered by John Sugden weeks ago, but he lived to tell the tale.
Now a new teaser has revealed what happens next, and a damning confession from Mack leaves his captor in visible unrest. The clip starts with a confused Mack waking up in a makeshift bed in an underground bunker.
Fans had seen John make his way to this hidden room on Friday, buried under the woodland ground. After days of fans suspecting the area he kept disappearing to was covering up a body, it turned out it was in fact a secret door.
This door led John down into his hidden room, where Mack was laying. The clip for next week reveals the moment Mack wakes up, and slowly begins to remember what happened to him.

Initially crying out in pain and appearing confused, he looks around and sees the IV drip attached to him and also realises he’s chained up. Mack begins to call out for help as he sees someone approach.
It’s John that emerges from the shadows though, with a look of fear etched across Mack’s face as he realises what’s going on. He sees flashbacks of the attack and realises he’s in danger.
But as he screams out for help not realising where he is and that no one will hear him, John approaches and tells him to save his energy and calm down. As Mack pleads for answers on where he is, John says he is “somewhere safe”.
But it’s so clear that Mack has remembered everything, and he soon issues a damning comment that leaves John nervous. Mack blurts out: “You tried to kill me, just like you killed Nate.”

John stares with unease, clearly realising Mack has remembered what he figured out and knowing he’s now in a predicament. But what will John do next and can Mack get away?
All will be revealed with plenty more scenes to come next week. John isn’t likely going to just let Mack leave surely, as he knows too much.
But the fact he’s kept him alive when he could easily have killed him means the chances of him silencing him for good could be small. Fans will see more from the pair next week, as the walls finally begin to close in on John.
At the time, a source toldPage Six: “Harry’s loving Montecito, Meghan bought him surfing lessons for his birthday and he’s having the best time.”
Princess Diana documentary on long list of shows Netflix could produce with Harry and Meghan as part of new deal
The Prince showed off his skills in 2024, when he was videoed at Kelly Slater’s Surf Ranch in Leemore.
The latest surfing video comes after the couple announced a new deal with Netflix, which gives the streaming giant first refusal over their suggestions for new programmes.
Their original deal was worth £100 million and ran out this year.
The show would mark the 30th anniversary of Diana’s death, after she tragically died in Paris on August 31, 1997.
An industry source said: “If Harry wants to do it then Netflix will bite his hand off.”
The Prince has spoken candidly about losing his mother in the press, as well as in his autobiography Spare.
In the book, Harry also revealed he had visited a medium, who told him that “your mother is with you”.
The psychic said: “Your mother says, ‘You’re living the life she couldn’t.
“You’re living the life she wanted for you’.”
Harry gave his daughter Lilibet – named after the late Queen Elizabeth II – the middle name Diana in a reference to his mother.

Two easyJet planes clipped wings on the ground at Manchester Airport in Britain Friday morning leading to a temporary halt of ground traffic, although no injuries were reported. File Photo (2020) by Neil Hall/EPA-EFE
Aug. 15 (UPI) — Two planes clipped wings at Manchester Airport in Britain on Friday, briefly pausing flight operations on the ground at the facility, officials confirmed.
No injuries were reported when the two easyJet planes collided on the ground at about 6:30 a.m. local time, an airport spokesperson said.
“We suspended operations briefly while they were assessed to see if they could taxi back to a stand, which they could so operations resumed after a few minutes,” the airport said in a statement to reporters.
Both flights were set to depart the international airport, with one bound for Paris and the other headed to Gibraltar.
Britain-based easyJet is a multinational low-cost airline group. The company operates a fleet of 318 Airbus aircraft and boasts that it has “one of the youngest fleets in the industry.”
The airline was working on re-booking affected passengers Friday, according to airport officials.
“EasyJet can confirm that the wing tips of two aircraft came into contact while taxiing to the runway at Manchester airport this morning. The aircraft returned to stand to disembark customers who have been provided with refreshment vouchers while replacement aircraft are arranged to operate the flights,” an easyJet spokesperson told The Guardian in a statement.
“We apologize to customers for the delay to their flights. The safety of our passengers and crew is our highest priority.”
Last weekend, a Delta Airlines flight clipped another aircraft at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

Two planes have collided on the airfield at Manchester Airport.
The EasyJet aircraft clipped wings during taxiing at about 06:30 BST, an airport spokesman said. There have been no reports of injuries.
Passengers have since disembarked from both planes which had been due to take off for Paris and Gibraltar respectively.
Flights have resumed at the airport following a brief suspension for a safety assessment which found minor damage to the planes.
Tynisha Chaudhry, who was on the Gibraltar-bound flight with her partner, compared the collision to a car crash.
“We felt the whole plane shudder – it was a massive hit.”
She said “a lot of fire engines” and other safety staff attended the scene, as passengers waited onboard during inspections.
The atmosphere among passengers was “okay” but some younger passengers and their parents became “tense” before they were allowed to return to the terminal, she added.
Apology
An EasyJet spokesperson said: “EasyJet can confirm that the wing tips of two aircraft came into contact whilst taxiing to the runway at Manchester airport this morning.
“The aircraft returned to stand to disembark customers who have been provided with refreshment vouchers whilst replacement aircraft are arranged to operate the flights.
“We apologise to customers for the delay to their flights.
“The safety of our passengers and crew is our highest priority.”

They were left at the Black Sabbath Bridge after news of Ozzy’s death broke and during his funeral procession through Birmingham last week.
Jack told how every item will be recorded on a digital database and given to the Osbourne family.
A video showed all the tributes laid out in rows, being photographed and logged.
“Here’s how tributes for Ozzy Osbourne are being carefully preserved by Central BID,” read the caption.
“All items from the Black Sabbath Bridge and Navigation St Mural have now been moved to a secure location.
“Every piece is being laid out individually, catalogued and treated with care.
“Our team has been working to respectfully sort the items ensuring they’re preserved in the best possible condition.
“We will be working to create a digital record of every tribute over the next few weeks to be sent to Ozzy’s family.
“The flowers are being mulched and bagged, with the compost to be included at Ozzy’s final resting place.
“Thank you for all of your tributes.”

One emotional fan penned: “Such a beautiful way to respect us fans and allow the family to see how much your Dad was adored.”
Another wrote: “Imagine all the different stories in those letters and cards from people old and young, all over the world all being bought together by one person who had an impact on their lives in some way.”
“That is so awesome, Ozzy touched so many people all over the world. What a wonderful way to acknowledge his fans,” shared a third.
Someone else agreed: “This is amazing and show just how much you loved your dad and also respected his fans. You should all be proud of what you did for his legacy.”

“Wow and wow what an awesome tribute to your dad. God bless you Jack and your family,” added a fifth.
Ozzy’s youngest son shared a short video compilation of clips and photographs of himself and his father.
The 39-year-old was seen supporting his mum Sharon and his sisters Kelly, 40, and Aimee, 41, at their dad’s funeral.
He appeared on the American reality TV show The Osbournes as a child alongside his father, sisters and mother.
Jack said: “I haven’t really wanted to post anything since the passing of my father.
“My heart has hurt too much. I’m gonna keep this short because he certainly hated long rambling speeches.
“He was so many things to so many people, but I was so lucky and blessed to be a part of a very small group that got to call him Dad.
“My heart is full of so much sadness and sorrow, but also so much love and gratitude.
“I got 14,501 days with that man and I know that is such a blessing. I think this quote best describes my father.”
The tribute was followed by a quote from Hunter S. Thompson, known for writing Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
It reads: “Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body… but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, ‘Wow! What a ride!'”
Jack went on to say that the quote from the American author summed up his dad, adding “he lived his life fully.”
Meanwhile Sharon earlier revealed Ozzy’s poignant final words about his fans following his farewell Black Sabbath concert.
She told Pollstar: “It was the first time, I think, that anybody’s gone into retirement and done it, where the show is streamed and it goes to charity.

“So it’s the first time anybody has said goodnight like that, it’s the perfect way, when you’ve had such a long career, to end it – I never wanted Ozzy to just disappear without some big event.
“He [Ozzy] turned around and he said to me that night, he said, ‘I had no idea that so many people liked me’.”
The family home was decorated with pictures of Ozzy, and mourners were given a photograph of him to take home.
The singer’s nearest and dearest attended, joining his wife Sharon and his children Jack, Kelly, Aimee, and Louis, his son from his first marriage to Thelma Riley.
His official death certificate lists ‘acute myocardial infarction’ and ‘out of hospital cardiac arrest’ under the cause of death section.
It also listed coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s disease with autonomic dysfunction as “joint causes” of Ozzy’s death.
The document described his occupation as a “rock legend, songwriter and performer” in a heart-warming nod towards Ozzy.
