1. These men normally decide which laws are passed by the UK parliament. But this morning they were practicing their pancake flipping skills.
It's Shrove Tuesday, which means it's the annual parliamentary pancake race to promote mental health charity Rehab.
This is Lord Addington and Lord Mawson warming up.
2. They race against the UK's political journalists. Who, as this clip shows, are universally rubbish at flipping pancakes and therefore always lose.
Yes, that's BBC political editor Nick Robinson second from left.
"The politicians always cheat," Sky News political correspondent Sophy Ridge told BuzzFeed, before muttering something about MPs not flipping pancakes properly and barging people out of the way.
3. And the third team consists of members of parliament. Who are, basically, just a bit bawdy.
Colne Valley MP Jason McCartney seemed really excited to be there and kept making jones about having a "crepe pancake" and suggesting "they go for another toss" to universal groans.
4. This man is Julian Huppert, MP for Cambridge, warming up for the big event. He is amazing at this.
5. It's a relay race, with every runner wearing a chef's apron, comedy hat and carrying a frying pan. Just to make them look as daft as possible.
6. You'll never believe what Lord Kennedy saw when he looked at the bottom of his frying pan.
7. Channel 4 political editor Gary Gibbon plumped for a gentlemanly flipping action.
8. While Sophy Ridge of Sky News went for the rare "designer clothes at a pancake race" look.
@SophyRidgeSky good running hope pic ok ?
KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE PANCAKE, SOPHY.
9. And ITV News' political editor Tom Bradby basically lost sight of what he was doing.
@tombradby if you want to get ahead in life get a hat !! good run old chap
10. But Lord Bilimoria – the man who founded Cobra Beer – really wanted his team to win.
11. And this is how a Lord celebrates winning a pancake race. (Clue: involves leaping.)
Well done. Now, back to parliament with you.
