You have to wear TROUSERS to get the vaccine!

[NB - Lighthearted . . .]

Is it just me, or did anyone else find this visual on the BBC website a bit weird?

I hope no fires happen, looking at the second picture. He's stuck right in the middle!

What happened to the women's masks in 16-64?

I like how social distancing only actually kicks in when people get to the front of the queue and, presumably, catch sight of medical authority figures. An authentic touch.

Also pleased to note that nobody is wearing stiletto heels as there is a worrying amount of stomping on other people's feet going on if you look closely.

@OnlyTeaForMe
What a truly light-hearted thread, OP...It has definitely brought out the cleverness of some MNETTERS
The World can use a little humour right now...it's been a long year of stress and sadness

There are so many clever posts it is hard to choose my favourite...my vote goes to @SchadenfreudePersonified since whilst reading her post I spat a mouthful of my morning granola halfway across the breakfast table.

On another note, I'm truly amazed by the lovely posture of the citizens in the UK...If this were a graphic of US citizens the figures would have to be slouchy, with their arms and legs all akimbo and there would be 3 metre gaps in the queue....you never know if a person is in a queue here in the US or if they're just standing around thinking...but you'd better not go ahead of them without asking since about 95% of the time they WERE in the queue!!!! Many people here have been overly social distancing for years...drives me cuckoo...Americans aren't big on queueing in the first place....nothing to do with covid19

As a blonde who wears her hair in a high pony, I am extremely insulted that one of my kind has been portrayed in the 16-64 group as taking the liberty to pinch the backside of the man in front of her whilst not only stepping on the back of his heel but also stepping on the lady's foot behind her in the queue and also influencing said lady to not wear a mask....and all the blonde pony females are smashing the feet of their queue mates..how dare the artist portray my kind this way

You lot must do extremely well at spotting the differences of the seemingly identical pictures puzzles

@OnlyTeaForMe

I'm worried they've let a Frenchman into the 16-64 group! #ShutTheBorders

I actually think it might be Frank Spencer (showing my age).

So many things wrong with this image:

Why are most of the females wearing open toed shoes in Jan/Feb?? It’s cold and I bet their toenails aren’t fit to be seen in public anyway (just me maybe)

All the men are wearing the same black shoes. (Apart from one silver fox in the 75-79 group in first pic who is wearing some blue suede numbers, although I spy his son (or lover? Fellow blue shoes lover perhaps) down below in second pic 50-54 who is sporting a very impractical pale blue suede pair. Also rudely stepping on someone behind him. Fashionistas!

Yeah!
I'd say she's quite the narcissist! Disgraceful blonde ponytailism...

P.S. I found the authors (Lucy Rodgers and Dominic Bailey
from the BBC Visual Journalism team) on Twitter - shall we invite them to participate?

I think the silver fox in the 70-74 and CEV group is TOTALLY rockin' the black jacket/yellow trousers and black shoes/cane look!

And they’re all slim too. I’m complaining, where are the fatties like me.

Aaaaw!

Thank you SweetPea

Oooh! Do!

I know if it was my oeuvre I'd be thrilled to cause such a stir among the population.

@OnlyTeaForMe
Yeah... That's what it is... Blonde ponytailism!

And here's another vote for letting the BBC artists in on the fun...especially since you did all that investigative work, Tea.
This will learn them to run all their future projects by mnetters before publication...and of course since Tea brought this faulty graphic to our attention she will be given compensation for every previewed graphic

You're welcome, @SchadenfreudePersonified...no need for blushing...you truly earned the award...I'll see what I can do about getting you one of those Queen's
Awards for Spreading Humour in the Middle of a Pandemic ...it was a very stiff competition, Schadenfreude!

Another standout figure was the man in the 50s group(I think) who had on a nice belt with his trousers and had his shirt neatly tucked in to within an inch of its life...must be ex-RAF...Good habits learned there, you know

😂 love this thread

Those 65 year olds look like they have been doing yoga and pilates...

If this is a queue for hospital, where are those fat mums with pot noodle stained leggings and their little snot covered Asbos?

They've also missed of the whinging teachers at the back of the queue.

And it seems to be summer! Or least warm- nobody has got coats on!

Is this meant to be a sign???

@Blibbyblobby

Knew it reminded me of something!

Excellent! Thank you for the giggle. Much needed tonight.

Gender neutral.

@CherryValanc you described me- red head in a wheelchair, wearing a skirt! Shit, I'm doomed! Is that better than being CEV?

I'm going to be very wary of blondes with high pony tails from now on - it's more than one of them bottom pinching and most of those that aren't look as though they are about to. Poor etiquette in a queue.

@OnlyTeaForMe
You were right about blonde ponytailism! Look at @InsertRudeWord 's post....she doesn't trust me after Lucy's and Dominic's graphic .
..I promise, Word, I don't smash people's feet nor pinch anybody's bottom...plus, I'm American...I don't stand in queues

Its the shortness of the inside leg measurement that's jumping out at me.
Anyone over a 30" inside leg is buggered.

I also noticed that, from this, the vaccine will clearly be rendered useless by the wearing of any warm tone. Seems we will shortly be instructed Re ‘national wardrobe lockdown’

The BBC want to erase women anyway so are cracking on doing so...

Seriously though, no Zimmer frames, wheelchairs. Clearly only fit and well people can get this jab 🙄
