“Round the Election Poll”, cartoon by LG Illingworth, for Punch, 1945.
Post World War Two, the first British election in ten years was set for 5th July 1945, but the results were delayed until the 26th, to allow counting overseas ballots, largely from service personnel. Illingworth represented the contending sides as maypole dancers, all running in different directions.
Easly recognisable are Winston Churchill, Clement Attlee, Anthony Eden, Lord Beaverbrook (owner of the Daily Express, whose headline warning that a Labour victory would amount to the 'Gestapo in Britain', adapted from a passage in a radio election speech by Churchill on 4th June proved a huge mistake and completely misjudged the public mood), Ernest Bevin, Herbert Morrison and Aneurin "Nye" Bevan.
The 1945 United Kingdom general election, called by then Prime Minister Winston Churchill, took place on 5th July 1945. The governing Conservative Party sought to maintain their position within parliament, but faced challenges from public opinion about the future of the United Kingdom in the post-war period. Churchill lost the election to the Labour Party in a landslide, making Clement Attlee the new Prime Minister.
Leslie Gilbert Illingworth (2 September 1902 – 20 December 1979) was a Welsh political cartoonist best known for his work for the Daily Mail and as chief cartoonist for Punch. His first work was published in the satirical magazine Punch in 1927.
The University of Kent - British Cartoon: Archive notes Illingworth also produced work for the Ministry of Defence, and on Bernard Partridge’s death in 1945 he replaced him as Second Cartoonist on Punch, working alongside Ernest Shepard. In 1949 Illingworth became Cartoonist on Punch, alternating with Norman Mansbridge. In 1948 Illingworth became a member of the Punch Table, but considered himself uneducated, and was very shy at the weekly lunches, where the subject of the cartoon was decided. When Malcom Muggeridge was editor of Punch from 1953 to 1957, Illingworth would sit at the Punch table between him and John Betjeman. “They were very kind to me”, he recalled: “I was conscious that I was a monumental bore, so I used to concentrate on the claret and keep as quiet as a cabbage.”
Further Reading:
• “Churchill in Punch” by Gary L. Stiles, published by Unicorn in 2022 (AmazonUK Affiliate Link)
Punch featured Winston Churchill in more than 600 cartoons between 1899 to 1988. Some were laudatory, some were critical, and others, like the man himself, usually humorous.
Churchill in Punch catalogues all the cartoons and provides a context of the events and people being satirised and places them in historical perspective.
Early on, Punch often made Churchill into a caricature of himself, promoting exaggerated images of his physical characteristics such as his forward leaning gait, his prominent jutting jaw, his cigar, and his hands on hips when speaking. His hobbies were frequently caricatured such as his love of polo, painting, writing skills and brick-laying.
Publisher Unicorn describes this book as “not just for fans of Churchill, but for anyone interested in history, British life over the past 120 years, media and their response to government and politicians, cartoon aficionados and general society. It is an easy and fun read for the casual reader but also the academic who wants more depth through the appendices and an analysis of major world events through the eye of Punch.”

Munster will play the Crusaders in a novel fixture next February
The inaugural 'Clash of Champions' between Munster and the Crusaders, the Super Rugby champions, is scheduled to take place in 2024. Crusaders Munster Rugby
The New Zealand team, headquartered in Canterbury, defeated the Chiefs in Waikato over the weekend to win their seventh straight Super Rugby title.
It was confirmed this morning that they would play Munster, the URC winners, on February 3rd of the following year.
Although it is uncommon for club teams from the northern and southern hemispheres to play each other, the Gallagher Premiership and the URC expressed support for the notion of a Rugby Club World Cup last year.
Rob Penney, the new head coach of the Crusaders, will be making a return visit to his old haunts for the match in February 2024. The New Zealander coached Munster from 2012 to 2014. Penney will take over as the All Blacks coach following the World Cup, succeeding the phenomenally successful Scott Robertson.
We are delighted to welcome the Super Rugby champions to Munster, hosting a groundbreaking fixture against the Crusaders,said Ian Flanagan, CEO of Munster Rugby.
We hold a proud and rich history of playing touring sides and I've no doubt next February's game will be a special occasion for all involved.
The Crusaders are thrilled to be coming over to Ireland and the UK to face some stiff competition away from home," stated Crusaders CEO Colin Mansbridge.
NZ and Australian clubs have been working on the World Club Competition for years, so when an opportunity for Super teams to play Northern Hemisphere counterparts came up, it was just too good to pass up, Mansbridge stated.
More News :: Super Rugby Pacific Live Game Today
Munster is especially tough competition since they have a reputation of giving visiting teams a difficult time. Additionally, Rob Penney, our new head coach, coached there, so that's a bonus, Mansbridge added.

‘Mr. Dressup: The Magic Of Make-Believe’: A Canadian Children’s Entertainment Icon Takes Centre Stage In Documentary Trailer
By COREY ATAD. Published: 7 Sep 2023 2:54 PM
“Keep your crayons sharp.”
On Thursday, Prime Video debuted the trailer for the new Canadian Amazon Original documentary, “Mr. Dressup: The Magic of Make-Believe”.
The film looks back on the story and legacy of Ernie Coombs, the iconic children’s entertainer best known to Canadians as Mr. Dressup.
Featuring interviews with Michael J. Fox, Eric McCormack, Graham Greene, the Barenaked Ladies, Jonathan Torrens, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, Andrew Phung, Bruce McCulloch, Scott Thompson, Bif Naked, Peter Mansbridge and Yannick Bisson, the doc explores the impact “Mr. Dressup” had on generations of Canadians.
As seen in the trailer, the film also looks back on Coombs’ beginnings in children’s television with fellow icon Fred Rogers, and their strong friendship.
“Ernie never forgot a child within him, and that informs everything that he does with children,” Rogers says in a clip from an archival interview.
Born in the U.S., it was Rogers who convinced Coombs to come up to Canada to work with him, producing TV shows for kids.
Coombs would launch “Mr. Dressup” in 1967. The show was immediately successful, though there was a scare soon after, when “Sesame Street” premiered and some wondered wether the Canadian show would be able to stay afloat amid the American competition.
But Coombs persevered, and the show continued airing until its final episode in 1996.
Coombs became a Canadian citizen in 1994, and in he was named a Member of the Order of Canada.
“Mr. Dressup: The Magic of Make-Believe” premieres Oct. 10 on Prime Video.

Movie Reviews:
r96sk: An acquired taste. For me, someone who has no knowledge of computer programming and the sort, it’s a very slow, tedious and boring watch.
‘Tron’, unfortunately, didn’t take my interest whatsoever. Not helped by the poor special effects (they get a pass due to it being an 1982 release; though I’m not convinced it’s good either way) and forgettable cast performances, it’s not a premise that’s easy to get into if you have no prior understanding of coding etc.
There is some intrigue in there, but not nearly enough to satisfy my viewing pleasure – it felt like a much longer run time than 96 minutes, that’s for sure. All cool if you love this, but I very much didn’t. Hopefully the 2010 sequel gives the concept a major boost.
CinemaSerf: I saw this again yesterday – it’s 40 years old! I didn’t see it at the time, I was one of those kids who hadn’t the slightest interest in “Space Invaders” nor did I ever have an Atari, but I do recall the fuss that was being made about Disney’s first foray into the wor...

That's another book read and removed from my towering TBR pile. Here's my 5* book review of Master and Apprentice by Susan Mansbridge.
***
If you enjoy fantasy novels that invest a lot of time in world building, you’ll love Master and Apprentice. Don’t get me wrong; that isn’t this novel’s only merit. The magical rules of this world seem original and well-rooted in its past. The apprentice of the title, Reez, is a well-painted character with understandable faults, strengths, and reactions. We want him to succeed and feel for him when he faces upset and obstacles.
There’s a slow burn in this novel that gathers momentum in the final third, leading to an exciting and devastating climax. The ending and the epilogue perfectly set things up for the next novel in the series. Brilliant.
***
The blurb:
Millenia have passed since the great Mage War which devastated the land of Zelannor. As they struggled to survive the terrible catastrophe, the surviving Mages decided to divide magic into three disciplines, so that no one person could ever hold such power again.
Years later, Reez, a boy of 12, is apprenticed to Wicton, the Master of green magic, a force concerning all things that are planted and grow. As he struggles to grasp the intricacies of his craft, he also needs to learn how to temper his arrogance and repair the fractured relationships of his childhood.
News from the east, however, brings the possibility of an even greater threat. Reez and Wicton, suspect that the Master of Anima magic covets greater power and is seeking to learn another’s craft, forbidden since the division. Such an act could destroy the peace and prosperity that has existed for more than 4,000 years.
Master and Apprentice is the first book in the Masters of Zelannor trilogy.
