Actor Reece Dinsdale just owned Piers Morgan in the most perfect way possible
Actor Reece Dinsdale – we remember him from the marvellous ITV sitcom Home to Roost, you might know him from something else – just owned Piers Morgan and it really is a work of art.
It started when the Good Morning Britain presenter said this about Nigel Farage after his lively BBC interview with Andrew Marr.
Nigel Farage looking & sounding like a leader on #Marr. Love him or loathe him, at least he believes in what he says & argues it with passion. His popularity comes from his authenticity & his new surge is happening because democracy is being denied to those who voted for Brexit.

Dinsdale thought he’d pick him up on it and, well, it all rather escalated from there.
If you can’t tell the difference between ‘looking & sounding like a leader’ rather than faux indignation & empty bluster… then your opinion is worthless to me. https://t.co/8vnZyUxIKZ

To which Morgan replied with this.
This may explain why you haven’t had any lead roles for years. https://t.co/m7LhiGPlJB

And Dinsdale had the ultimate comeback.
Oh dear!
If you’d done your homework, you’d see that I’ve been directing television drama, one of which last year won an RTS Award, beating two other nominated programs in the category… your morning show being one of them. https://t.co/7KgOembVGR— Reece Dinsdale (@reece_dinsdale) May 13, 2019
Boom!
Here’s just a little bit of the love it generated on Twitter.
So nice that Morgan's 6.6M followers can see him make a twat of himself on a regular basis.🔥 https://t.co/bvhBuRHIED

Someone call the fire brigade because @piersmorgan has just been burned.
Constantly being burned by @GaryLineker he turned his attention seeking ways to @reece_dinsdale and got exactly the same result.

And in case you’re wondering what it looks like when Piers Morgan is beaten to an award, here he is at the Baftas when Good Morning Britain lost out to Channel 4 News.

You could say Morgan’s tweet, ahem, came Home to Roost.
