Justin Fletcher who plays Mr Tumble on children's tv is the long lost younger brother of Mark King. They had a falling out in 1935 when Mark was heard to say 'oi Justin, put my 'king bass down'. Justin soon after changed his surname to Fletcher by deed pole.

No apology needed, rather an acclamation of trumpets, beating of drums and loud hosannas. Onward and upward; here's to 30k...

Gravel-voiced Bassist Ian Kilminster and Trevor McDoughnut are forming a duo. They are however searching for an appropriate name.

Kilminster plays a Rik, give the other chap a 5 string bass. Then it's Lemmy-a-Fiver. Any other name would cause confusion.

PJ Proby got his name after wearing pyjamas on stage. This was the only garment available after an unfortunate trouser-splitting incident on stage.

I thought he was named after he went missing and his parents thought he'd been abducted by aliens during the night?
