If I may be flippant. 1. Her sister. 2. Kyfall. (I have a lisp). 3. Real Housewives In Bed. 4. The mythological Tory MP who cares. 5. The Superbowl. 6. Graffitti - plenty of Weegies do it! 7. Beyoncé. 8. Bleasdale. (The first wrote Bwoys From The Black Stuff and the second commentated on Willie Carson in a letter to the BBC). 9. Kingston And Surbiton LibDems Under 21s. 10. Never The Twain. (That lothario, Donald Sinden….)

The Truth. This interview from January 2018 probably tells you all you need to know about Frank Aiello. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05t64d6 From Highbury in London, aged 74 at the time of recording so let's say born circa 1943, now living on the Isle of Wight.

The Tymes. I see you have a date of death for Hilliard, so I'm surprised you don't have a date of birth. All I can find is he was born in Franklin, Virginia, if that's of any help in tracking the dob down.

Think I'm screwed, but I'll send you something tomorrow JR, just in case....

Oh yes, he is a god. The god of lies. The god of abrogation of his office. The god of racism. The god of cocaine partaking. If only the Greeks, Romans or Egyptians had gods like that, we could have been warned in our classics classes.

Last I heard his latest bitch was ill with the COVID. So that publicity story died. On holiday when the 'rona was on the rise worldwide, hid in Chequers offering herd immunity and death to thousands when it arrived, allegedly caught it (does anyone believe that) so off for weeks, now he'll be off due to this birth (not doing PMQs today). If he was an employee anywhere else, he'd have been retired on ill health or told to pack his box and leave.

Here's hoping Michael Robinson is a torpedo for leading players. I of course didn't have him.

The Ramrods. Just a question. If you have details for the Litkes and Eugene is their cousin, isn't there a way of searching your sources for the Litkes' parents, their siblings and then back down to Moore somehow? They all seem to be from Connecticut, but given he left the music biz decades ago he's practically unsearchable except through Ancestry or the like I'd have thought.
