At times it seems like running a corporate social media account is the hardest game in the world. Just ask British Gas and HMV. But a teenager seems to have taken it in his stride.

Meet Eddie.

It was a high-wire act, putting an enthusiastic kid in charge of a railway firm’s Twitter output during rush-hour, but Southern Rail’s trust in youth seems to have paid off.

It started with an internet classic ...

But took a dark turn ...

We were soon back in safer territory ...

Then another big question followed ...

But who is Eddie?

... so a teenager ...

... who is real ...

... and supports West Ham United. Fair play, Eddie! You win the internet.
