Clips of Peter Hitchens being ridiculed in his prison cell have been making the rounds on social media.

EastEnders’ actor Sid Owen has described the experience as being like getting “run over by a bus”, while Tory MP Johnny Mercer also agreed to participate in the show.
But it was one clip of Hitchens getting used to life in a cell with Britain’s “naughtiest schoolboy” that has got most people talking.
