Gosh How The Beano Has Changed!

How "The Bash Street Kids" have chnged over the years! See the cartoons in the Beano today compared to yesteryear.

Political correctness /health and safety has crept in! The teacher as we remember him from our childhood comic was a bit like Hitler but now there is a lady teacher and a coloured teacher - the children are different looking and Gnasher the dog who was so fierce looking back in the 50s/60s is now a dog who does "gentle gnashing" of teeth.

Bring back the old style we say! LOL

we had lady teachers and coloured teachers at our real-life school, so maybe the Beano is catching up with the world?

There's an exhibition on in London
