Renowned journalist and historian Sir Herbert Gusset Charles Moore has penned the following intriguing analysis of the strip in the right-wing Daily Telegraph newspaper 1: When Watkins died in August 1969, David Sutherland continued the series until the 1970s, and then Jimmy Glen took over. [13] Biffo remained as cover star until issue 1677, [14] dethroned by Dennis the Menace, but appeared inside The Beano until issue 2310, [15] however, he would have three one-off strips in the "Readers' Request" feature. [13] Appearances outside of The Beano [ edit ] The Beano has had a few controversies throughout its lifetime, but aspects have either been discontinued, phased out or changed to not cause offence. Its infamous changes are the removal of corporal punishment (e.g. Dennis the Menace often depicted receiving bottom spanks with a slipper by his furious father) [265] and misbehaving characters abandoning slingshots—the latter irritating former readers for being a " politically correct" notion, usually highlighted with claim "Dennis has lost his menace".

Watkins was born in Prestwich, Lancashire, England. However, the family moved to Nottingham while he was still a baby. [2] His father was a lithographic print artist who noted the boy's early artistic talent and ensured he received extra art classes at the Nottingham School of Art. By the age of 10, the local newspaper declared him a "schoolboy genius." He studied at Nottingham School of Art, and while working for Boots Pure Drug company in the early 1920s, Watkins' first published artwork appeared in Boots' staff magazine, The Beacon. [3] Work with D.C. Thomson [ edit ]Jimmy Glen finally stopped drawing Lord Snooty in 1988, when Ken Harrison took over. However, a lot of the strip's original charm was now lost, and Snooty's personality took a turn for the worse. Ken continued to draw it for several years, with John Dallas filling in on occasion.
