Caterpillar identity ?
 
Hi all

We noticed this intruder on our verbascum this evening.

http://home.clara.net/andycoleman/Caterpillar2.JPG

Coincidence really because it was only a couple of evenings ago we
commented that we hadn't seen any caterpillars for ages.

We looked on http://www.whatsthiscaterpillar.co.uk/ but failed to pick
it out and I'm sure someone here will be able to help.

TIA Andy

Try mullein moth - specific to verbascum.
