A ship-shaped cloud was spotted at sea by a shocked pensioner.

Phil Schofield took some snaps of the coastline.

But it wasn’t until he looked closely at them the next day that he saw the boat.

He thinks he resembles the ship on the Blue Peter badge.

Phil, 70, of Porthleven, Cornwall, took the photo at Mousehole, near Penzance.

“I’ve been into photography all my life,” he told What’s The Jam.

“I always explore my photos when I decide if they could do with cropping.

“It was the following day when I was doing just that and the cloud formation took my interest.

“Funnily enough I’ve always had a huge interest in Blue Peter and that’s what I thought of first when I saw the ship.”

Friends agreed with him.

Claire Harris said: “Looks like the Blue Peter badge.”
