His eyes are orange, his tongue is black... and he's been translated into more languages than the Harry Potter books. Jim White meets Axel Scheffler, the artist who drew The Gruffalo (and finds out why his original vision of the hirsute beast was rejected). Plus, from Partridge to Porridge's Fletcher... which is the funniest British comic character of all time?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
