Dedworth ... please take note:

Tonight's edition features Gary Lineker ... alias, "Gobby Gary" - as you're predisposed to calling the 'Match of the Day' presenter.

Alas, most of his family photos were destroyed years ago during a flood, leaving Lineker with little to go on ... so the subject had to engage the services of a professional genealogist to undertake the research necessary for this programme.

Skeletons in the cupboard? ...

... turns out one of his great-great-great grandfathers was an encorrigible poacher (albeit NOT from rural Lincolnshire as popularised in the famous English song commonly associated with that vicinity ) and had been incarcerated in Leicester Jail on numerous occasions for such midemeanors.

Sources reveal this particular ancestor earned much notoriety in and around these parts ... not least, I suspect, on account of his rather unfortunate name (as befits his ineptitude) viz- James Pratt.

Aye ... ... a real prat!
