A Mail on Sunday report over the weekend claimed Acaster had “complained to producers” he was being teased by competitors Rob Beckett and Romesh Ranganathan and was “uncomfortable” with the duo’s “macho banter.”

Macho banter from those two? People that James Acaster has been good friends with for many years? This was clearly a joke.
