I suspect that Trotter is as Mad as a lorry.

Ok, I agree I am mad, but am intrigued by the phrase "as mad as a lorry", are some lorries mad and I would love to know where this phrase came from?
The only time I have actually heard anyone say it was on Chris Morris' controversial spoof news show, "Brass Eye" back in the late 90s, where Chris was interviewing notorious London gangster "Mad Frankie Fraser" (who didn't know it was a spoof). He asked him a series of questions and asked him to rate each question as to how mad it would make him, on a scale which had "Mad as a Lorry" at the upper end.
