Comedian Joe Lycett’s comments on celebrities’ Instagram accounts are the prank we need right now

Joe Lycett seems to be effortlessly funny, though he’s probably just putting in a lot of slog we don’t get to see. As well as being an amazing stand-up comedian and one of our favourite panel-show regulars, he also has a really popular Twitter account. It was on this that he recently shared his newest hobby, but we’ll let him tell you about it.
