Appreciated.</p> <p>@ jamsie I think they've done a good job atcherly. The original is too one-dimensional (albeit more ribald vis-a-vis the 'Carry On' genre<strong>*</strong>) and over the intervening days the real news story has evolved into an angst-ridden exposé of the culture within the Beeb during the '60's and '70's - which the nice chaps * grovel * * cough * at NB have deftly crowbarred into the final FP.</p> <p>@waylandsmithy PhotoShop - don't get off the shelf effects. Create intuitively from the basic set and experiment. It's loads more fun and the results are invariably fresher than most. Also helps if you can draw a bit. As for a post-modern reassessment of the Blobster, you have a point, sir!</p> <p><strong>*</strong>See Fred Ippitittimus, see Kenny Williams' nostrils. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=49163#post-142289 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 09:03:49 +0000 jamsieoconnor 142289@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>The FP version is actually less funny than the original piece.

I'm so jealous of people who can master photoshop.</p> <p>We ought to re-evaluate Blobby, though. He was on 'The Big Fat Quiz of the 90s' and I could hardly breathe, I was laughing so much.

Cutting a tall orotund and eccentric figure, pink skin covered in yellow polka-dots, with bulging eyes jiggling as he moved and a permanent rictus grin, Mr Blobby seemed to show no remorse.</p> <p>When asked by the magistrate to enter a plea to the charges the accused retorted, "Blobby blobby blobby".</p> <p>A nonchalant Blobby was handed a blanket to cover himself and warned that he was very close to receiving a charge of contempt of court in addition to the obscenity charges.</p> <p>DCI Vic Hanky outlined the case for the prosecution; "On reviewing prime-time Saturday night video footage from the 1990's show 'Noel's House Party', we quickly discovered blatant acts of gross indecency and lewd behaviour. It appears the accused spent most of his time naked in front of children and adults alike." After viewing hours of the tapes, several female officers had to receive 'trauma counselling', added DCI Hanky.</p> <p><img src="http://i830.photobucket.com/albums/zz223/pinxit2/blob90s.jpg"><br /> <em>Better Times: Blobby celebrates his No.1 hit</em> </p> <p>The court heard from his solicitor that the one-time star, who had a number one Christmas single in 1993, had fallen upon hard times in the last 15 years, his last work had been in pantomime at Croydon in 2002, and that he had been treated for chronic alcoholism and a rare form of yellow acne, but could no longer afford the fees at The Priory, where he was a regular patient in the early 2000's.</p> <p>Responding to criticism, an angry spokesman for the BBC denied there had been a 'cover up'. "In fact," she said, "he never covered up."</p> <p>"Blobbers was a valued member of the show, contributing much to raising the bar and the viewing figures in true Reithian style, educating, informing and entertaining in Crinkley Bottom. Salman Rushdie was a big fan." she added.</p> <p>Application for bail was denied, as long-time showbiz acquaintance Noel Edmunds refused to stand surety. </p>
