Tous à Bruxelles

As regular readers will know, Euronews is moving to Brussels in March next year.

Our graphics department has had some fun with the news.

Some famous Belgian characters

I recognise the Thompson Twins, Snowy and the Manneken Pis – and a Schtroumpf.

I guess that is Plastic Bertrand holding Snowy judging by the words on his T-shirt.

But I’m not sure who this magician/busboy looking character is.

And where’s the Belgian bullet?

Of course the faces of all the Belgian celebrities have been replaced with those of our graphistes.

Update: 20 July. The red-clad figure is Spirou – a very famous Belgian comic strip apparently. A bell-boy at the Moustique Hotel.

And of course the Thompson Twins in French are Dupond et Dupont.
