    That's the sort of money that will attract the top show ponies, do we have one with the initials DB who we could donate?

    Eddie the Eagle managed his path to fame and fortune without government funding so I fully expect to see Percy the Poker rising to fame in fencing, 'Arry the Arrow in archery and many more working class heroes.
