How old?!
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?
