There were strange things going on below the belt at Bristol-based legal expenses insurer DAS, as staff celebrated Wrong Trousers Day last week.

The event, in support of Bristol Children's Hospital, was in tribute to the plasticine heroes Wallace and Gromit, Oscar-winning creations of local animator Nick Park.

All sorts of bizarre leg garments were on display in the department, but fortunately – unlike in the cartoon – the strange trousers did not lead to a crime-filled rampage.

The only thing out of control was good taste, if the specimens on display here are anything to go by.


The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
