Another said: “We’re going to Braehead asap.”

The Grinch was created by children‘s author Dr. Seuss in How the Grinch Stole Christmas!, first published in 1957.

The book has been adapted many times, first as an animated film from 1966 TV film narrated by Boris Karloff.

A 2000 live-action film saw Jim Carrey hilariously take on the role, while a popular animated film version was released in 2018, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as the green menace.
