    [Film] Do you know someone related to someone famous but....

    My better half got bullied mercilessly at school by a kid who went on to become an England rugby international. We now live a couple of doors along from his brother and family. We get on fine with all the family but the rugby player never gets mentioned by them or us.

    Most famous person you have met, shook hands with and a chat

    I’m guessing Warne and Maguire. Kafrlnikov won as many grand slam tennis events as Andy Murray iirc. He was pretty bloody famous back in pre Federer tennis days. Norm was a staple on SNL for ages until he offended the President of the tv network he worked for. A very funny bloke.

    [Albion] Brighton's Roberto De Zerbi drawing attention of Europe's top clubs

    If RDZ leaves in the summer I'd steer well clear of Potter as a replacement. Russell Martin (I just read on wiki he's from Brighton) or Kieran McKenna would be my picks.

    [Albion] Paul Barber OBE

    He's absolutely outstanding at his job. But I always think people who give up their time and money to help others are the ones who society should recognise (food bank volunteers and charity organisers) , not people who are good at a job they are highly paid to do.

    [Other Sport] Best sportsman / athlete of all time

    I'm not a cricket fan (to say the least!), but when you compare his test average with every top player before and since, it's impossible to argue he wasn't the best ever. A test average of 50 implies you are absolutely world class, one of the best of your genereration. Bradman had a test...
