    Not terribly relevant really, but which channel actually showed Princess Charlotte "crying" at Wellington Arch? I was only able to look BBC up here and there was nothing like that in it, only a glimpse of her instructing Prince George to bow to Queen's coffin. I tried to google it and and only got that "iconic" photo, no actual video footage.

     

    Not the most reliable, I know... but one twitter person claims that she was yawning, not crying.

    Can I ask why Clive Dunn's face came to mean that very specific thing?

     

    Because it's already been Dunn (done).

     

    edit: yes, I am aware that Kenny knows what the Dunn head means.

    The Quads.

     

    Dunno if this will be of much help but there's this (scroll to page 12): https://www.marxists.org/history/etol/newspape/socialist-challenge/sc-n191-apr-02-1981.pdf

     

    Says the band were from Acocks Green, Birmingham and that Josh Jones was the oldest of the brothers. All I know. Surely there couldn't be that many Joshes in that part of Birmingham in the 1960s/70s?

     

    There's a chap on this webpage from 2014 claiming to be the son of Josh Jones and there's an email address. Don't know if it still works.

     

    https://www.birminghammusicarchive.com/quads/

     

    edit: using the son's name from that website the family are easily findable on facebook. The photo of Josh matches that on his website.

    The pages aren't sorted by year or anything like that, but you can get limited electoral roll information for Denville and Brinsworth here

    Note that the pages cover the entire postcode so if there are any private houses etc. within the same postcode they may also be included. Obviously it only includes people that registered to vote at the address so won't cover everybody.
