    One of my Mum's cousins is the Primate of All Ireland apparently (that's the Irish Catholic equivalent of the Archbishop of Canterbury, not some kind of orangutan)

    My cousin is Paul McCartney.
    I think BDL is winning the fame game so far folks and you can see where he gets his ability to work an arena of 10,000's of people into a screaming, chanting frenzy from with that family connection. Frankly I'm suprised more people don't faint when BDL's on the mic' like his cousin...

    I think the word famous is open to discussion.
    No it's not. We all know that the definition of famous is always "somebody who Chirpy has heard of". Not a proper lifer if you don't know that...

    I must come from the most boring family ever.

    No one is famous
    No one has ever achieved anything
    No one has ever got an A level
    Everyone is short

    Not sure how (I'm not into this Geneology stuff) - but I'm related to James Chuter Ede - Home secretary in the 30's and long time Labourite.

    It must be fairly distant as he only died in 1965....I was born into a Kidbrooke council estate in 1970.
