Amusing misprint in the trivia quiz in today's Independent:

"Which Bafta and Emmy-winning actress is the great-grandfather of the former Prime Minister Herbert Asquith?"

The answer is Helena Bonham Carter.  Herbert Asquith was born in 1852, so his great-grandfather would have been born well over two hundred years ago.  Who knew Helena Bonham Carter was so old and transgender?

Clearly a superpower she's been hiding.

Does she have a sword concealed somewhere, I wonder?
