Carol Vorderman (Twitter)

No-one else seemed to notice this, so I thought I'd best do my community duty and add it to the official record!

A series of tweets posted recently by UK celebrity Carol Vorderman...

Brilliantly, Carol did indeed succeed in trending #ticklishfeet and TONS of ladies came out of the woodwork to detail their ticklishness! Alas Carol, I fear that this "University Project" was merely a ruse from one of us lot!

Marvellous find!
I would happily volunteer free of charge to spend several hours finding out exactly how ticklish Carol's bare feet really are...

I'm not much of a twitter connoisseur, so maybe someone could help me out. Where do you find where TONS of women came out of the woodwork to detail their ticklishness?

When a lot of people on Twitter want to discuss a topic, a "hash tag" will tend to be used in their tweets to make it easy to search for them. In this particular case, people responding to admit their ticklishness used the hash tag "#ticklishfeet" (as was recommended initially by Carol herself). This means that you can use a Twitter client to search for #ticklishfeet and find all of these messages - remember that my original post was a while ago, so you may have to go back a little bit.
