  Well, that’s just a silly thing to say, you can clearly see in the picture that it’s a left tit he’s feeling.

  I’m not sure that Clegg misjudgement is quite the equivalent of exile to St Helena

  This has to be one of Steve Bell’s most obscure references to an historical oil painting for years – although that makes it all the more fun for those of us old fogeys who spotted it instantly.

  I’m wondering how many Guardian readers actually recognised Sir William Quiller Orchardson’s “Napoleon on Board the Bellerephon”? AFAIK it has only been on show at Tate Britain for about three out of the last ten years.
