LONDON -- As far as social media platforms go,India Archives Reddit tends to be one of the harder ones to trick.
Normally if a photo is old or a statement is untrue, some internet sleuth will quickly dig into it and put the record straight.

There's a very select group of people who will understand what Stelling's on about here. And even then, things only really click with the last line.
For anyone still confused, the top comments below the story (which has received over 5000 upvotes) should provide a clue.
Still in the dark? Don't worry, you're not the only one.
Yep -- Stelling was actually describing a Punch & Judy show. For anyone unfamiliar with Punch & Judy, it's basically an unsettlingly violent puppet show aimed at children that's been tradition at British seaside spots for many, many years.
The shows aren't anywhere nears as common as they used to be, but they do still pop up in touristy places now and again. They involve audience interaction ("Oh no he didn't!" etc.), puppets hitting each other with bats and -- as Stelling references -- thieving crocodiles.
You've got to hand it to Stelling; his post really is an A+ piece of trolling.
