Strippers, skeletons and the Grim Reaper: Weird and wonderful gnomes taking over UK

Gnome comforts: The garden ornaments are flying off virtual shelves
Who doesn't love a garden gnome? But, it seems, our passion for the funny little men in red hats has now spiralled to new heights.
Sales of the cheery critters on eBay have soared by an astonishing 400% in the last month. But we're not just talking about the traditional kind, humble fishing rod in hand looking like butter wouldn't melt.
One of the best sellers is 'zombie gnome' – and there's a whole host of other gnomes out there who aren't nearly as innocent-looking as their traditional counterparts.
It's not all gnome sweet gnome any more.
Why a flamingo is the chosen victim of these three hungry zombie gnomes we have no idea – but they seem to be having a great time.
Not sure about the flamingo though.
