Just when the global controversy seemed to be dying away, a forensically-minded colleague, let's just call him DKM to protect his identity (but he is an expert in hyphenated names) comes up with this shock development. He emails it to me under the subject line "hyphengate".

This is a still from the movie of the aircraft in question just after being painted at Toulouse. Pretty sinister I think you'll agree.

One of Qantas' remaining A380s is to be named after co-founder of the airline Hudson Fysh. Frankly I'm not confident this story is finished with.

Perhaps the hyphen will keep moving around and turn into a running gag like Marty Feldman's hump in the movie Young Frankenstein.
