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)
Meat Loaf: the waistcoat-clad behemoth (News of the World)
Goths: the followers of the sombre fashion of black clothing and garish (The Sun)
Crown: the jewel-encrusted headwear (The Sun)
