The 21 best responses to Danny Dyer becoming the hero we didn’t know we needed
For reasons best known to themselves, ITV decided to give Piers Morgan a post-match show, Good Evening Britain, featuring guests Jeremy Corbyn, Pamela Anderson and Danny Dyer, as well as long-suffering co-host Susanna Reid.
The year is 2018. Brexit beckons, Trump in the White House. The sun scorches the ground, 30 degrees at 9.30pm. ITV. Primetime. Piers Morgan directs football talk with Danny Dyer, Pamela Anderson, Amir Khan and – via a problematic Skype feed – Robbie from Arsenal TV. The rapture.

If you aren't currently watching #GoodEveningBritain it's genuinely one of the maddest bits of telly I've seen in years. Corbyn, Danny Dyer, Pamela Anderson, Amir Khan, Harry Redknapp. It will, I think, inevitably end in some form of violence.

Whatever people thought of Piers Morgan’s analysis of England’s 1-0 loss to Belgium, they were mostly agreed on one topic – that this rant by Danny Dyer is everything.

That’s right. Eastenders actor and unstoppable Cockney, Danny Dyer, gave us some harsh facts about Brexit and managed to call David Cameron a twat, live on air. Twice.
“This whole Brexit thing when you’re judging them. Who knows what Brexit is. You watch Question Time and it’s comedy,”
“No-one knows what it is, it’s like this mad riddle. What’s happened to that twat David Cameron that called this on?”
“Where is he? He’s in Europe, in Nice, with his trotters up. Where is the geezer? He should be held to account for it.”
“Twat!”
Twitter loved it, as these 21 tweets show.

Danny Dyer calling David Cameron a twat twice on tv is the real Brexit dividend

Danny Dyer's Twat Shout! – an old fashioned fun board game for all the family. I don't know what the rules are, how it works or how you win, but the aim of the game is to turn over a card with David Cameron's picture on it and shout "Twat!"

That Danny Dyer interview has everything. The word twat. Corbyn being grumpy. Pamela Anderson being confused. Ed balls giggling his tits off. Piers Morgan being interrupted. Harry Redknap asleep. The word twat again. pic.twitter.com/TRYR3MA7MP

It’s the second ‘TWAT’ he spits out after we thought he was done, that will stay in my heart for ever. https://t.co/6PFwby6ypM

Danny Dyer saying "Brexit is this mad riddle, no one knows what it is" was actually some of the most astute political analysis I've heard in ages, until he bettered it with "What happened to that twat David Cameron?" pic.twitter.com/s4zH5awq0r

If Danny Dyer overturns Brexit then every satirist in the UK will be rendered unemployed overnight.
