Nothing to see here – except a supercut of Dion Dublin explaining where stairs go

One of the randomly brilliant pieces of daytime TV casting is the appearance of former footballer, Dion Dublin, on property show, Homes Under the Hammer. We have no idea what it was about his ability to barge an unfortunate centre back off the ball to send a screamer into the back of the net that made scheduling bosses think, “D’you know who could talk about the need for a complete replastering job? Dion Dublin!”

That being said, this supercut of one of his most-used phrases shows the ease with which he guides viewers around houses for which they could never get a mortgage because of austerity.

It’s a curiously soothing, yest hilarious, two minutes and sixteen seconds, lovingly compiled by David Clissold, or @discokidnap on Twitter.

When someone reposted David’s work, it grabbed Twitter’s attention all over again.

These were some of our favourite reactions.

Twitter user Tink sensed a problem in the offing.

To prove that Mr Dublin is a legend off, as well as on, the pitch, here he is tweeting a Homes Under the Hammer clip.

Respect!
