This week’s edition of Question Time touched on Brexit and the special relationship, but what people were really talking about was a disappearing thumb in the background as an audience member spoke.

The BBC show itself tweeted about the cheeky stunt, which distracted from the woman in front’s very important point about MPs voting against Brexit.

If the naughty chap thought he was going to get away with it, he was quite wrong. Here he is moments before the disappearing thumb happened, thinking up the dastardly plot, no doubt.

It certainly lightened up the show.
