EVER BEEN SNOGGED BY A GHOST WHILST DOING POTTERY?

PATRICK SWAYZE HAD READY BREK THAT MORNING
No? What about pashed by a phantom? Smooched by a Succubus? Still no? Ah, you've never lived. 
Maybe that whisper in your ear whilst you're ghost hunting is more than a whisper, maybe it's an amorous attempt to get intimate by an Incubus. Jeez, I don't know, I am just trying to build up this blog post.


"Can ghosts kiss? Well judging by the well known paranormal documentary film GHOST 1990 YES THEY CAN!!"

And even more spooky is that it came 3rd in the list of the best movie kisses of all time beaten only by Jack and Rose’s kiss on the front deck of the Titanic and the spaghetti and meatball snogging scene in the Disney classic The Lady and the Tramp. 
The tender moment between Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio’s characters takes place seconds after Rose utters the famous line, “I’m flying”. The multi-Oscar winner fought off competition from The Lady and the Tramp’s meatball scene and the smooch between Sam and Molly in Ghost. While Han Solo and Princess Leia’s embrace in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back also featured in the top 50 greatest movie kisses. 
The research of 2,000 UK adults was commissioned by TLC to celebrate the launch of its new TV show, Love At First Kiss, which airs on Wednesdays at 9pm from 11 January.
A spokesman for TLC said: “Kisses are such a big part of movies so it’s fascinating to see which ones have had the biggest impact. “For many people, their first experience of a ‘proper’ kiss is likely to have been seeing one on screen. “So perhaps respondents had a sense of nostalgia when it came to voting for their favourites.” Pretty Woman’s fire escape kiss came fourth, followed by the snog at the end of Dirty Dancing – and Bridget and Mark’s kiss in the snow in Bridget Jones’s Diary.
NOBODY PUTS BABY IN THE CORNER!!
OH SHIT WRONG FILM!!
Spiderman’s upside down smooch came seventh while the rain-soaked embrace between Holly Golightly and Paul Varjak in Breakfast at Tiffany’s came eighth. Bella and Edward’s first kiss in Twilight also appeared in the top 50, along with the “you had me at hello” moment from Jerry Maguire and the elevator kiss in Romeo + Juliet. The scene where Ron and Hermione’s finally kiss in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows featured too.
While Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara’s embrace in Gone with the Wind after he says the words “you need kissing badly” came ninth. Thirty per cent of Brits said romantic films are their favourite type of movie to watch on a date – however over a quarter said they would feel awkward watching one on a first date. Almost half of respondents think movie kisses are realistic and three in 10 said onscreen romance has influenced how they go about their love life.
A fifth of people reckon watching a film with a date which features a smooch or two, improves their chances of sharing a kiss at the end of the night. Forty six per cent of respondents think it’s possible to fall in love from the first kiss, while seven in 10 think first impressions count when comes to kissing. Another kiss in the rain, this time from The Notebook, came eleventh – while the first kiss between Vada and Thomas J in My Girl also appeared in the top 50.
Casablanca’s “Kiss me as if it were the last time” embrace, Shrek and Princess Fiona’s kiss which turns her into an all-ogre – and Keira Knightley and Andrew Lincoln’s snog feature too. Clare Laycock, VP, Head of TLC said: “In Love At First Kiss, participants are invited to kiss fellow contestants without an introduction.
“If they like each other, they can then choose to go on a speed date followed by a proper date – so first impressions really count. “The iconic kisses featured in our survey may well give romantic singletons some inspiration and encouragement.  “Many of us will experience a nerve-wracking or exciting first encounter… and perhaps one that isn’t quite as perfect as we see in films.”
