This morning, I watched YouTube footage of a man attempting to secure fleeting social media stardom by belly-flopping onto a large cactus.

'He climbed the prison roof and showered inmates with cigarettes!' Celebrating Market Drayton's prolific prankster 'Poddy' Podmore

And he did not fail. I was one of 33 million drawn to the stunt. He went through hell to attain clickbait heaven. Again, I pondered Derek 'Poddy' Podmore, who is either one of the most famous or infamous individuals to emerge from Market Drayton. The jury – and Poddy met a few of those in his heyday – is still out on which adjective to use.

He may even be described as an “influencer” for those who are in a “shall I, shan’t I?” quandary over nailing their ear to a tree or dousing themselves in manure. In 2024, the story of a man swallowing a live frog – as Poddy did at the Railway Hotel, Market Drayton – would not make a news bulletin’s light-hearted “finisher”. Facebook would drip fury, images of incandescent rage would flood Instagram.
