As a young actress in the late 70s, a cousin of mine appeared in Quincy, The Streets of San Francisco, and Hawaii Five -O.

Not really, but my grandad was a co-founder of the forerunner to the Paralympics. Can't remember its name now, but it was for injured soldiers. And was QC - his chambers were used for the trial of the Great Train Robbery.

I struggle to think of a 'famous' relative (unless you count my uncle, who was Essex Chess Champion for many years in a row) but I've been pictured on the front page of one national newspaper, quoted on the front page of another, written for several local newspapers presented local radio programmes and been interviewed on BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio Sheffield and BBC Radio Suffolk.

Does any of that count?

[Smowball]

Ooh well get you lot!

Apparently, I am related to David Livingstone through my paternal grandmother. I don't know any more details than that. I must look into it a bit more, sometime.
