This black-and-white cartoon of mine has proved to be one of my most popular and best-selling pieces.
It shows a police instructor standing before a classroom of cadets, pointing to a blackboard on which the words “Hello, Hello, Hello, What’s all this then?” are neatly written – the classic line so often associated with traditional British policing.
The humour lies in the idea of this familiar phrase being treated as part of formal police training – as if recruits must practise the iconic greeting before heading out on duty.
It’s a simple concept, but one that seems to strike a chord with people, especially those with links to the police service or a fondness for classic British humour.

Over the years, this cartoon has appeared on mugs, greetings cards, and other items, and continues to raise a smile wherever it’s seen. It’s a gentle reminder of a bygone era and the good-natured image of the friendly local bobby.
