The site, in 2001
A parody of a small-town English local newspaper, set in the fictional town of Framley and its absurdly named villages.
Written from 2001 by Robin Halstead, Jason Hazeley, Alex Morris and Joel Morris, all regular Viz contributors. It became a book, billed as 'the book of the website of the newspaper', and a second, Historic Framley.
In 2001: The website began this year.
Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.
Cult Classics: Small, strange and loved to bits by the people who found them.
