KIDS' TV host Neil Buchanan inspired thousands of children to get creative in the nineties on his hugely-popular show Art Attack.

But it seems the viewers’ innocent minds missed something spectacularly rude about one of the show’s main stars: the Talking Head.

8 Art Attack's Talking Head appears to have a very saucy message on his forehead

8 If you look closely the strands of his clay fringe seem to spell out the word sex

8 But now an eagle-eyed Twitter user spotted the rude message while watching the show again

Eagle-eyed Twitter user Jamie Smart, who was catching up on the classic show, claims the Talking Head has “sex” written on his head.

And if you look carefully, it does appear as though the clay hair spells out the word.

After closer inspection, his followers picked up on Jamie’s spot with some complaining their memories of the ITV show had been marred forever.

One tweeted: “Another childhood memory ruined.”

Another wrote: “OMG THE BUST’S HEAD HAS SEX WRITTEN ON IT.”

It’s not the first time the Talking Head has been in the spotlight.

Last year fans of the show compared a sand sculpture of One Direction’s Zayn Malik to the animated bust.

Their merciless teasing started when Radio 1 DJ Scott Mills shared a picture of the statue.

Star of the show Neil left television behind when Art Attack came to an end in 2007 and has since gone on to join a rock band.

He first formed rock group Marseille in his native Liverpool in 1976 but after leaving the show behind he returned to music full time.

In a 2011 interview with the BBC, he admitted music had always been his first love.

Neil said: “I’m a musician first – that’s what runs through my blood.

“I was a failed rock star first time around… So getting five fortysomethings back together into the music business, which is dead, in a genre of music that hasn’t been heard of since the dinosaurs… that’s been my greatest achievement.”

It's not the first time viewers claim they've seen secret messages tucked away in childhood classics as this round-up from Disney shows.

A rep for Neil Buchanan has been approached for comment.
