LittleBigPlanet was named dropped last week in UK Chat show Friday Night With Jonothan Ross. Whilst no footage of the game was shown, Jonathan Ross did produce knitted Sackboys that were sent in to them, presumably by the Media Molecule / Sony hype machine. The dolls were designed to look like the host himself, who as he introduced them proclaimed ‘knitting is the new rock and roll,’ and also Ricky Gervais, who was a guest on the show that week, who asked if it had a tiny penis like his.



You can still watch the episode on the BBC iPlayer, the section on LBP is about 24 minutes into the show, which also features Chef Gordon Ramsey and Comedian Sarah Silverman.
