The pineapple on a hotel buffet breakfast table is there for the taking and not just a centrepiece.

Dave Gorman proved this with a cheeky pic of himself holding his trophy.

Gorman’s quirky not-so-idle pursuits have become his brand, yet the plain-speaking fast-talking man-next-door lookalike can be relied on to surprise.

His acutely-observed, apparently everyday topics laid bare a banality lurking behind ordinariness which most of us would simply never perceive on our own.

Googling ‘fox’ reveals a disproportionate ratio of pics of women to the furry animals. Such is Gorman’s discovery, looking up his ‘safe’ fantasy, Megan Fox.

The joke was on him when Mrs Gorman, already found flirting on Twitter with Paul Hollywood, revealed her secret fantasy to be a mutual friend who comes round to dinner. He used to, anyway.

It’s the way he tells them. Only Gorman could find a slip in the song all kids sing: If You’re Happy And You Know It Clap Your Hands.

“Why wouldn’t you know it?” asked an exasperated Gorman. Now this didn’t seem like such a silly question.

Support Nick Doody dared to play with the audience’s sensitivity to political correctness and cleverly, if painfully, made us the joke.
