Wow, thanks wikipedia. Just looking up the town of my birth because of a thing that came up the other day, I said Kevin Eldon was from Gosport, I always believed he was, and it turns out not to be true. Then it came back to me that there was some connection between Deep Purple and Portchester and that seems to be something I completely made up too. Now I'm wondering if any of the things I think I know are actually true? It's going to turn out that John Craven is taller than five foot after all isn't it?
Also from wikipedia: Alastair Stewart off the news and the drink driving charge is originally from Gosport. Him and Roger Black and Joe Jackson and myself are probably the only genuine notables.
