So, has everyone seen the newly unveiled mascots for the 2012 Olympics?

They're, um, unique.

I like that the blue one's expression is silently pleading with the audience not to invoke the wrath of the orange one - clearly the Green Tentacle to orange's Purple Tentacle.

"To appeal to a generation of children brought up with electronic gizmos, Wenlock and Mandeville, look as though they are related to computer game character Sonic the Hedgehog and will even have their own place on Facebook and Twitter."

Definitely Sonic the Hedgehog, not phallic Teletubbies created under the influence of heavy drugs.
