AND THE BIG BROWN BEAR CAME LUMBERING OVER THE HILL

If you're going to attack people's style, it would presumably be wise to ensure that you yourself don't look like a student who has been hiding out from the police for a week and a half. Not that that bothers Serge Pizzorno from Kasabian, who felt qualified enough on matters sartorial to suggest that Franz Ferdinand looks like The Railway Children.

We presume he means the kids in the film rather than Gary Newby's Factory-signed, Jackie-loved 80s band. Although we can't be sure, as to us they neither look like Franz Ferdinand - who surely are more "just passed o-levels, starting first job at the Trustees Savings Bank", aren't they?

See for yourself with The Railway Children on DVD...
