The Flat Cap is of course the national headgear of Yorkshire, but in the vivid imaginations of the "Bard of Barnsley" Ian Mcmillan and cartoonist Tony Husband, the flat Cap has 101 other uses - everything from a butterfly net or Bond Villain's deadly weapon, a satellite dish or a cat scarer, to an impromptu bobsleigh or bouncy castle. Ian and Tony also reveal: how the Flat Cap was portrayed in the Bayeaux Tapestry (sorry, Bayeaux Capestry); its appearance in the Yorkshire Ten Commandments ("tha must not covet thy neighbour's Flat Cap"); and the rather risqué Erotic Dance of the Flat Cap ("drives men barmy", says Ian). Celebrate the best of Yorkshire in this humorous look at the county's favourite headgear.
