Journalists love nothing more than a good "knobbly monster" - a desperate attempt not to use the same word again . . . when there is only one. Named after Paul Hudson, who was writing about alligators when, having used up "reptiles", he resorted to "the knobbly monsters".
Here are some classic funny newspaper knobbly monsters (compiled by Tom Churchill of The Scottish Sun)
Moustache: The facial fuzz (The Sun)
Gnomes: the cute, bearded, plaster folk (The Sun)
Swimmer Jane McCormick: the inspirational human-fish (News of the World)
