I know it's complete stupidity and an astonishing waste of police time but it REALLY DID HAPPEN.

I don't like to see people losing their jobs, but clearly the Hate Crimes Unit of the particular constabulary can be wound up without delay, as it doesn't appear to have a speck of common sense.

The next time you hear Police organisations bleating about how they are overstretched and victimised by Mistress Theresa M, wave that article under their nose.

At a low point Brush actually applied for the lead role in Batman Begins, on account of being used to working in a cape. In the end Bale got the part because the producer was a big Spurs fan, and thought he was getting Gareth Bale under the mask.

The sex change guy James Herries apparently got his willy out during an interview a couple of years ago and the interviewer panicked and we haven't seen him/her since!
Report The Leopard • December 13, 2015 1:23 AM GMT
In the mid-1990s, after leaving Whose Line Is It Anyway?, Slattery suffered what he described as a "mid-life crisis" – triggered by excessive drinking and cocaine use (spending up to £4,000 per week on the drug)[2] – culminating in 1996 with a six-month period as a recluse, during which he did not answer his door or telephone, "or open bills, or wash... I just sat". Eventually, one of his friends broke down the door of his flat and persuaded him to go to hospital. He was diagnosed as suffering from bipolar disorder. He discussed this period and his subsequent living with the disorder in a documentary made by Stephen Fry, The Secret Life of the Manic Depressive, in 2006; Slattery claimed that he spent time living in a warehouse and "throwing [his] furniture into the Thames".

In 2004, after James Harries had undergone gender reassignment, Channel 4 broadcast a documentary Little Lady Fauntleroy made by actor Keith Allen in which he interviewed the Harries family.[7] The documentary was released on DVD on 4 July 2005.

On 8 July 2005, a gang of five to seven men attacked Harries, her father and her brother in the family home.[8] One 17-year-old boy was later fined and given a supervision order for his role in the incident.[9]

In October 2006, Harries appeared in the Channel 5 television series Trust Me – I'm a Beauty Therapist,[10] which was filmed on location in a beauty therapist's in Swansea, Wales.

In November 2008 Harries was featured as a cover girl in the specialist lifestyle magazine Transliving.[11]

Harries is a Buddhist and a vegetarian;[2] she lives in Cardiff.

In August 2013, Harries became a housemate on the twelfth series of Celebrity Big Brother.[12] She finished in third place.[13]

In September 2013, she appeared on Celebrity Juice.[14] Harries has cited past sexual relations with comedian Russell Brand, claims he adamantly denies. Harries repeated her claim in January 2015 stating "It’s all true [...] he doesn’t want people to find out, maybe he doesn’t want his mother to know!"[15]

Her debut single "I Am a Woman" was released in January 2015.
