It's 28 April, folks, and that can only mean one thing: it's officially time to celebrate Britain's favourite Twitter holiday.
#EdBallsDay -- the anniversary of the day in 2011 when former Labour MP Ed Balls tweeted his own name -- has been a long-standing tradition since 2013.
This year, though, the opportunities for sweet, sweet GIF-based enjoyed are at a new peak -- all thanks to Balls' 2016 appearance on popular BBC dance show Strictly Come Dancing.
