Matt Lucas has responded to criticism, after he appeared to block a children’s author who complained about the prominence of novels by celebrities, including himself, in bookshops.
The Little Britain comic actor and former Great British Bake Off host said he had been “oversensitive” to a post by writer Lindsay Littleson. She had shared a photo of a bookshelf in a branch of WH Smith filled with fiction written by stars including Lucas, Alesha Dixon, Geri Halliwell, Stephen Mulhern and Jamie Oliver.
