Matt Lucas brings together three members of the paparazzi to find out what it’s really like to snap the stars. There's tension in the studio as ‘night pap’ Tony Hickson, self-styled ‘worst pap in the business’ Tony Oudot and Jaimie Harris (one of the few female paps in the business) discuss their craft with Matt, attempting to find some common ground between celebrity and photographer. On the way we discover how those before/after weight loss photos are taken, the unspoken rules of when to snap a celeb, and why the paparazzi’s lot is to be disliked - even by each other.
