Matt Hancock morphed into Bob Mortimer’s Train Guy and once seen it’s never unseen
Matt Hancock has been making headlines of the unfortunate variety today after he laughed – really laughed – during an interview with Kay Burley on Sky News today.
Lots of people thought it wasn’t an entirely appropriate thing for a health secretary to do during a pandemic in which so many thousands of people have died (and you can read exactly what they made of it here).
But one moment that really caught people’s attention was the moment he morphed into Bob Mortimer’s Train Guy. He did, he really did.
The main thing to note here is the perfect Bob Mortimer train guy noise he makes at 1m 11s pic.twitter.com/FabarXnzPo

And just a few of the things people were saying about Hancock/Train Guy today.
Matt Hancock has gone full @RealBobMortimer train guy. Surely I can’t be the only person to have noticed? (Checks Twitter). Ok, I’m not the only person. https://t.co/p0DZr9LIEj

Forget the train guy 1 second impression, this idiot Matt Hancock couldn't run a bath. 40k people are dead, and he's laughing. Tempted to put a d in his surname.
