Some pictures what I drew (redux)

[ad hoc]

Sven did a Euros preview on Sky News that was repeatedly interrupted by Lembit Opik trying to call him. It was very Partridge (and also a bit niche, admittedly)

[Patrick Thistle]

That opening panel... yep.

This week's is all a bit personal -

Nice to see "I Think You Should Leave" referenced...

Yes, a cartoon about a team that I don't know a lot about is always helped by a reference that I have no clue whatsoever about.

[Felicity, I guess so]

Only about a third of the usual no. of comments

[Auntie Beryl]

I don't know who the third figure from the left is in the Carson/Messenger panel. BDG himself?

[Nesta]

Neil from The Office, I think.

[Nesta]

Although, canonically, he's more of a rugby man

For this week's offering, if anybody is wondering about the Calvert-Lewin penalty (as I was), you can see it here, on 37 seconds:

He had me at "MeadViewer".

I've not watched Squid Game but I know what it is

I actually got most of the references for a change. But the one I didn't get, I regret looking up. You can probably guess which one.

[elguapo4]

Who's the popcorn eater?

[Toby Gymshorts]

Kenny Dalglish.

[Guy Profumo]

What is Jimmy Krankie wearing on "his" head?

https://www.theguardian.com/football...gerial-changes

[jwdd27]

His school cap. Jimmy Krankie is a schoolboy.

[Guy Profumo]

Weirdest cap I've ever seen

Why has it got wings?

[ad hoc]

It doesn't. He's riding a sort of heli-cycle

[ursus arctos]

The cap is a fairly standard tam

The superstructure supporting the rotor (including the "wings") is a bit fantastical

[blameless]

Jimmy Krankie is on the pitch between her maj and his holiness. The old lady on the heli-bicycle is a reference to this:

[Benjm]

It's Supergran on the heli-cycle. Wee Jimmy is coming up behind the Holy Father.

Edit: blameless sneaks in first.
