      Having a fictional character on it is strange to me. Don’t know if it’s just me.

      Am I the arsehole for finding Paddington far too twee and not understanding the obsession. Is it more patriotic to love Paddingtonslop or to hope he dies in a house fire?

    4. Ok-Western3626 on

      Surely it’s time Rylan was on one. After all, he’s been on every other fucking thing for some baffling reason.

    5. Antique_Surprise_763 on

      I dont think fictional people and alive people should be on them

      Weirdly misleading headline. The article says wildlife is still the top requested topic with 60% of respondents picking it, Attenborough is in 4th and Paddington is down in 22nd.

      I wouldn’t be too enthusiastic about a fictional character like Paddington Bear being on a legal banknote but I am open to Attenborough, but not while he’s still alive and well. I hope Sir David Attenborough lives as long as he can before that happens.

      David Attenborough is still alive!!! What the fuck are these choices?????

      If we are putting Paddington on banknotes we should change the wording to „Keep calm and promise to pay the bearer £10“. Maybe also there is space for the king to be saying live laugh love?

    12. TrousersTrousers on

      Bananaman on the £20 if we’re doing cartoon characters why not. Perhaps Nanny from Count Duckula on the £50, fuck it.

      If we’re genuinely considering fictional characters, why not go the whole hog and slap Mr blobby and postman pat on there too?

      Ridiculous.

      Please not Attenborough. It would be so embarrassing when he dies and the truth comes out.

      „Paddington Bear, guide dogs and the world-famous Sycamore Gap tree, which was illegally felled in September 2023, were also among the public’s favourites.“

      Sycamore gap tree would be cool. Or maybe Westminster Abbey. Or Angel of the North

      As great as Attenborough is at presenting nature shows and being a science communicator, I find it a bit odd having a currently living member of the public on our bank notes who isnt the king/queen

      Replace royal family with Paddington. Make it even more ceremonial role and give out marmalade sandwiches at opening of lords

    18. TheHarkinator on

      You can’t trust people, if we do they’ll be called ‚Notey McNoteface‘ in no time

    19. nick9000 on

      Paddington is an irritating, marmalade sandwich eating git. Anyway, he’s Peruvian.

      I would point out that Paddington Bear on a banknote is essentially just an advert on your money, but honestly, when’s the last time you even saw a bank note? They could put goatse on there at this point and maybe like 5 people would notice.

    21. Silent-Tea4500 on

      I want wildlife and landmarks, I like to think we know better than to put people on them these days

    22. FartingBob on

      Some of those top 28 is just weird or incredible vague.
      „Women“ is one, just put women on the note. All of them i guess. But that is less popular than „Diversity“ even though they’ve done bugger all since winning britians got talent like 20 years ago.

      Paddington is the least controversial. Because you know people will cancel someone if there’s a hint of any cause.

    24. georgiebb on

      If you don’t put real people on, then you don’t have to take them off. Wildlife makes perfect sense to me

    25. Rare-Garden-9877 on

      Won’t age well when the open secret about his pdf behaviour spreads

    26. Ron-Swansonn on

      I think that’s completely fair, I loved Richard Attenborough in Jurassic Park so it feels right to have him on our currency.

      Not sure about the train station though, I don’t think London Paddington is all that. Maybe they could try somewhere like Liverpool Lime St?

    27. Loose_Teach7299 on

      I thought they were using wildlife?

      Regardless using fictional creations just sounds very silly. What beloved institution will go on the money next? Mr Blobby?
