This is the same reason the Toyota can't sell the MR2 in France. That's right, yeah. Famously. I didn't know that, that's great. Yes. The MR2.
That's lush, that stuff. Owen Glyndwr, all that kind of like, he will come again type stuff.
Oh, I don't know why they're called romances. No.
That comes first.
Well, I'm a follower of Indiana Jones, so it's going to be a basic cup, perhaps wooden, that Jesus drank from at the Last Supper. And I think the legend was that if it could be restored to Britain, that that would heal the nation. I think that is also involved in this kind of... Joseph of Arimathea.
Did he come to Britain? If so, did he bring Jesus as his apprentice? Did he buy a cup from a gift shop in Glastonbury while he was here? Did he take it back? And then is it like nicking a Hoegaarden glass from a pub? Was it not actually his glass and he was supposed to return it to the barber? He didn't. He didn't know any better.

I don't know. I haven't read it. I have heard of it. It's a Rapscallion figure, isn't it? Yeah. It's a prison book.
I have to confess, I think it's one of those things that I've intended to read for a long time. I've never, do you know what I mean? It's on the list behind all the Grishams. I may have even owned it at some point, you know, and it's been put on the bookshelf in front of the Grishams. Yeah. But then you reach for aggression.
Yeah, Le Morte d'Arthur, you're right, it's a real... Sure, but it's less easy to put in... It's not such a sort of front-of-the-bookshop type title.
I don't know. I feel I've heard that name before. What's he famous for? Yes, he's the master printer.
