    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.
    All very well but he's not FAMOUS is he?

    You would make a good gavver

    Yeah whatever Stephen Fry says is correct. He's a really clever man....as long as he's got a script or an autocue....

    I once knocked Ade Edmonson out at a charity bash in Park Lane. Years later he called me a 'lout' on TV in an interview. The only thing I regret is that the mug got up ( eventually ) - one of the biggest twats I have ever met. His wife scratched my neck and called me a twat......that was absolutely fabulous.!!

    No, he had a sheep-pen near Glencoe. They were all knock-off though.

    Steve Nash is probably one of the ten best known athletes in the US, and pretty much any other country where they play basketball.

    So? I don't live in the US and I have no interest in netball, never ever watched it.

    I believe basketball is played in the UK so that means Stevie Nash must be one of the Top 10 best know athletes over here. Amazing. Who are the other 9 I wonder?

    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
    Do you know Snow White?
