Twitter reacts to Lewis Hamilton, his dog Roscoe and that Sports Personality win
The F1 champion's bulldog Roscoe got a lot of Twitter love as he walked the BBC's SPOTY red carpet in Glasgow last night
Last night Mercedes F1 driver Lewis Hamilton was named BBC's Sports Personality of the Year 2014. The driver had the suit on, he collected the huge trophy and... he also had his bulldog Roscoe by his side.
So, while Twitter had messages for Hamilton after his win, Roscoe was getting tongues (and tails) wagging too...
And here he is, Lewis Hamilton and his bulldog Roscoe

He had a little nap. (Roscoe, not Hamilton)

We're pretty sure Roscoe's just wanting the photographers to get his good side

There were a few grumbles about the result
1 in 3 people voted for Lewis Hamilton certainly not reflective of what people saying on here. Must have been too busy voting to tweet!!
