This kids TV presenter went to inordinate lengths to correct his Twitter balls-up

Children’s TV presenter Dave Benson Phillips – you might know him from shows such as CBBC’s Get Your Own Back, The Fun Song Factory or Disney Playhouse – thought he’d do the decent thing and remind his followers about the clocks going back.

Except it didn’t come out quite like that and it turned into ‘the greatest short story of our generation’, according to the great @JimMFelton on Twitter.

And this is how.

Netflix have already expressed an interest.

I think we all prefer the original message
