Good choice of Alan, but what a trainwreck of the design and the typography. Ugly as hell.

Pretty sure this is only a mockup — the note itself won't be out until the end of 2021.

I remember seeing a preview of the redesigned £5/£10 notes a few years ago and thinking exactly the same thing — seeing Trebuchet MS on a bank note was a bit of a surprise, but thankfully the end result looked far better.
