I just discovered that the cat in the Charley adverts was voiced by Kenny Everett.

Murray Head of "One Night in Bangkok" fame is the brother of the guy who played Giles in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

Please move this to the Things we do know thread...

WHITE CITY is the only London Underground station name with no letters you can fill in when written in capitals [eg A D O R P].
PS I promise I didn't discover this myself!

Knightsbridge is the only underground station that has 6 consecutive constanants.

And where can you stop at 10 stations in a row starting with H?

Answer - Piccadilly Line:

Hounslow East, Hounslow Central, Hounslow West, Hatton Cross, Heathrow Terminal 4, Heathrow Terminals 1, 2, 3 , Hatton Cross, Hounslow West, Hounslow Central, Hounslow East. .

Didn't know: Blondie's "Heart of Glass" was one of the earliest songs they ever wrote, from 1974. They tried it out as a ballad, then as a reggae version, they thought it was a dud. Until..

Very cool Guardian article on the making of Heart of Glass, below, from Debbie Harry and Chris Stein, who shows up in the comments. Good stuff, forever a great song.

Not the bit where he goes on about what c*** the c*** was for acting like a c*** when there was no reason to act like a c*** hence the not inappropriate response that the aforesaid c*** was infact...a c***?
