The outfit was based on a sketch from the hit Trigger Happy TV show, in which Joly would humorously approach people with various pranks, including flagging down cabs and issuing parking tickets.
Clare Balding
Most recently, at the start of December, broadcast journalist Clare Balding shared wholesome photos of various walks on a recent trip to the Lake District.
The TV sports personality took on Longlands Fell, Meal Fell and Great Cockup, and revealed that the experiences will be shared on BBC 4's Ramblings series.
In a Facebook post, the star said: "Some days start grey and grumpy, but the further you walk and the higher you climb, the better they get.
"A wonderful walk today in the north Lake District. You’ll hear all about it on @bbcramblings soon, but for now, enjoy the pics."
