   Wikipedia:

   "His parents, who ran a business selling tea cosies, put their son's name down in advance for a number of private schools with no idea how they were going to pay the fees, until at the last moment, when he was 13, they made two Paddington Bear stuffed toys for each of their children."

   No wonder he is like he is...

   Ed Miliband.

   His parents successfully sold their unrealistic children at a carboot sale, while the two stuffed toys went on to have semi-successful careers in politics.

   I hope you people have stopped calling private schools "public", as no one has really been privately educated since Maria Theresa's time.

   You could imagine Clarkson going to bed with an egg-cosy on his knob.
   On second thoughts...probably best not to.
