Comedian Bobby Mair's video showing how he pranked Katie Hopkins has gone viral. Mair appeared in an episode of Katie Hopkins Vs. The World this week so that he could take the appearance fee and give it to everyone Katie Hopkins hates. The video in which he interviews the kind of people Hopkins has criticised, from fat people to old people to people called Tyler, has attracted over 100,000 views in a day.

Mair explained how he came up with the idea: "A lot of my friends said they would never do the show but I thought there has to be a way to do the show and make that the fuck you to Katie Hopkins. I wanted to humanise all the people she makes a living insulting. When I found out that 40% of transgendered people say they’ve attempted suicide and then Katie Hopkins said Caitlyn Jenner isn’t brave I just really wanted to stick it to her."

"I felt like YouTube’s Robin Hood," continued Mair. "I took money from Katie Hopkins and just gave it to everyone she hates."

Last year, Mair starred in KSI: Demolished – Comedy Central’s online show which became one of the biggest viral hits of the year, with over seven million views. His performance was so great that Comedy Central handed him his own web series, The Bobby Mair Show. He is currently broadcasting his Edinburgh show Bobby Mair: Filthy Immigrant live on Periscope until August 31. <air says: "I feel like a less interesting, cheaper webcam whore."
