An actor and comedian has gone viral after sharing his parody of “your aunt” during the weekly clap for NHS and health workers during the coronavirus pandemic.
Soundtracked by noise of the applause, Hislop in character at first points out neighbours who have failed to turn out for the clap: “Number 11?
Get a f***ing lawyer,” Hislop says in the skit, which has received more than 30,000 retweets and 130,000 likes.
Will Hislop, who is the son of journalist, broadcaster and Private Eye editor Ian Hislop, drew attention to the misgivings many have about the round of applause given for health workers each Thursday since the UK-wide lockdown began.
