...or, in other words, I did not know this. Till now.

But I wonder if you were aware, Roger, that for the years you were penning the misadventures of one Andrew Capp, in Germany you were bringing smiles to the fans of Willi Wakker.

I DID know that, Steve. I think it's meant to be a jokey working class name.
I do NOT know why the Italians call Beau Peep "Beep Peep".

I knew it too, plus it was a question on The Chase a couple of months ago.
