Sorry You Went Viral

In What It's Like To Go Viral: the Snapchat influencer Caryn Marjorie who boasts of 18,000 boyfriends from being an AI-powered virtual girlfriend - but now has to have personal security as a result.

What Went Viral: Les Dennis' retort to ex Amanda Holden, the brotherly row over a former Ukip leader's post, the racy Raith Rovers tweet, the YouTube plane stunt that has backfired badly and why we love Hannah Waddingham.

And in your Timeline Cleanse: the cute video of a boy with a small puppy in a boot.

Tim and Hannah review the stories you've been sharing and helping to go viral this week.

From the famous composer at the royal coronation who had to explain that he wasn't Meghan Markle in disguise, the man reviewing food in the shower and outrage at the couple caught licking ice cream and putting in back in a shop.

And in What It's Like To Go Viral, the mum-to-be whose partner caught flak online for watching football in the labour room.

As an ultra runner, Lindsay Hannah Walter has done over 50 marathons and loved doing last week's London Marathon.

But she was upset when someone mocked her alopecia when she posted a picture from the race on Twitter - but was then overwhelmed with love and support online.

We speak to her on this week's show, and also look at what else went viral these past seven days: from a passenger's mid-air rant about a crying baby, to confessions of a cat killer influencer and the conjoined twins Carmen and Lupita, who were subjected to online abuse after an interview with sensationalised on social media.

We take a look at some of the posts that went viral this week that had a common theme of turning a bad or horrible situation into good.

From charity campaigner Carly Burd's allotment getting vandalised, to the aunt using Instagram to call for justice for her nephew, Ralph Yarl, and a couple who turned online hate into a catchy tune, called If I Were A Fish.

We take a fun look at some of the posts and videos that went viral on social media this week, including the MLB marriage proposal that didn't go to plan, condemnation over KSI's racial slur and facing a 100m Olympic medalist at a school sports day.

In What It's Like To Go Viral, we chat to Jill Foster, whose tweet about a desperate search for a nine year old boy's lost teddy on a BA plane showed that Twitter still has a heart, despite all its misgivings.

And in our Moment of Mindfulness, why ice cream makes everything better.

We take a fun look at some of the posts and videos that went viral on social media this week, particularly why things weren't what they seemed: from Kim Kardashian in a pub to the Pope wearing a huge puffer jacket and outrage over a stolen tweet about daffodils looking like spring onions.

In What It's Like To Go Viral, we chat to the fabulous CakeToonist, Tat Effby, about her fans love the pleasure of lids on different objects, and why not to make jokes about Peter Capaldi being your husband...

And in our Moment of Mindfulness, the estate agent who produced a music video to sell a house.

The show where we talk about the stories everyone’s sharing - and what’s it really like to go viral.

Hannah and Tim look at why you should avoid ranting online (especially about first class), a touching and inventive marriage proposal and whether you should show up your date for being stingy.

Enjoyed listening? It's even better watching! See the show on YouTube
