Jason and the Argonauts (1963) Ray Harryhausen had to animate seven skeletons, moving 35 different appendages for each frame to fit in with the actor's movements. Some days he only managed 13 or 14 frames (half a second of film). It took 4½ months to animate this 3 minute scene.

There's nothing else for it THE GREAT BRITISH BISHOP OFF 1. Preach Week. All bishops to offer their signature homily, exegesis on a surprise Bible verse hidden under the red gingham, and a showstopper full-length sermon. One to be crowned Star Bishop, another to leave the tent

So go on, Dementia UK. I spent my mother’s last months agreeing with her that her dead sisters were coming to visit. I spent my husband’s last weeks nodding as he told me his mum was coming to pick him up from school. Both were happy. Was I right? Or should I, as the @bbc

Sometimes Huxley likes to pretend he is dead, just to get my heart racing in the morning...

Me:We need to talk Cats: what now? Me: My itinerary and tickets in a plastic folder Cats: O yes Me: I’ve spent 20 minutes looking for it Cats: O dear Me: someone moved it from my desk to under our bed Cats: Dear o dear Me: It’s got bite marks in it Cats: That’ll be squirrels

My latest cartoon for New Scientist

A father allegedly murders his three daughters—whose wrists had been bound with zip ties and each had been suffocated with a plastic bag and the Daily Mail blames the mother. She requested the family courts to protect her children. They didn’t. Stop blaming mothers for the

I cannot think of a better way of marking the birth date of the sublime Stan Laurel (who was born on this day in 1890) than by posting a clip of him and Oliver Hardy laughing their socks off. This is from a short they made in 1930 called “Blotto” and is absolute gold, IMHO.

We have lift off!

Ayylmao13 My father’s uncles and aunt were deported on trains to Auschwitz: Convoys 62 and 68 from Paris Bobigny. For some reason, I’m not actually laughing at your gag.
