Our overlords have taken over
A London Underground station has been taken over by cats - with all advertisements replaced with pictures of the furry felines.
Almost 700 people helped the Citizens Advertising Takeover Service (Cats) raise £23,000 to buy the advertising space at Clapham Common station.
The cats will appear on advertising boards for two weeks..
The aim is to provide a "relaxing, fun and light-hearted" space free from commercial adverts, Cats said.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
