Tim Burgess’s Piers Morgan takedown was the subtlest burn and all the better for it

It’s not the first time Tim Burgess has taken aim at Piers Morgan with supremely satisfying results.

You might remember back when Morgan’s exit from Good Morning Britain last year prompted the Charlatans frontman to remember this tweet from eight years previously.

Which he then used to devastating effect.

His latest takedown is less spectacular but only marginally less satisfying for it, coming after new figures showed the ratings for Morgan’s new Talk TV show have fallen 80% in a week.

Here’s how their latest exchange began.

Triumphant last word to the Charlatans man.

Boom.
