On Monday afternoon, David Cameron made his first backbench appearance for 11 years. Now merely the MP for Witney, Cameron sat at the rear of the chamber to attend the Trident debate. Although he reportedly couldn’t find the backbench entrance, fiddled with his phone throughout May’s speech, and left the chamber early once Jeremy Corbyn started talking, he was briefly captured listening intently to proceedings. Here’s an annotated shot.

2 A man punching himself in the face in protest at having to sit next to Cameron.
3 Theresa May, staring straight ahead with what’s either intent, resignation or outright regret.
4 The Trident debate is very important, but not as important as the Jigglypuff this guy has just found on the despatch box.
5 Ena Sharples and Minnie Caldwell.
6 Someone just farted, but who?
7 This guy!
8 Billy no mates.
9 Billy even fewer mates.
10 Secretary of State for conspicuous napping.
