Iconic World War 2 cartoon figure, Mr Chad, has been discovered hiding in the New Forest and seemingly not aware that the war is over.
He has been found by roly-ploy comedian, Robbie Coltrane, during filming for his new show that sees the porky lad driving around (or aroond as he'd say) the country in a vintage Jaguar car.
Robbie, former singer with boy band Take That quips:
"We were just doing a bit about the New Forest and all of a sudden Mr Chad's head pops up above the wall. Wot! No corned beef? He said" the affable Celtic comic went on to say.
Mr Chad is said to be in a state of shock and near cacked his pants when he saw a mobile phone for the first time but Virgin boss, Richard Branson, comments.
"What a PR opportunity he is. As soon as we knew he was around we gave him a top of the range Nokia and a limitless account and now he has the thing glued to his ear every second of the day"
Mr Chad issued the following statement last night:
"Wot! No bread? Wot! No petrol? Wot! No free texts?"
It seems that the little fellow is losing no time in getting fully involved with our modern consumer society.
