I have a friend from Hartlepool who I tease a lot about the monkey hanging.

Last post by Alex - Today at 01:03:32 PMQuote from: Rev. Powell on Today at 12:58:59 PMI know a porn star was elected to Italy's Parliament, but I think she ran as a "serious" candidate.
I recall that being in the newspapers at the time. Apparently a security guard didn't recognise her and wouldn't let her in their parliament, so she flashed her boobs at him and he then realised who she was and let her in.

Bad Movies / Re: 100 Historical Movies in O...
Last post by Dr. Whom - Today at 12:16:34 PMOddly enough, there don't seem to be any movies about the First Crusade (unless you count a 1918 silent Italian one).
This leaves us with
20 Kingdom of Heaven (2005)
This deals with the fall of the Kingdom of Jerusalem (1187) and is prior to the Third Crusade, leaving room for Richard the Lionheart and Robin Hood. I might have gone with The Lion in Winter, which is set in 1183, but that is such a boring movie.

Weird News Stories / Re: The hero we all need.
Last post by Alex - Today at 11:55:05 AMWithout googling, iirc The Screaming Mad Monster Party had a candidate or two elected over the years, possibly Screaming Lord Such himself. It is incredibly uncommon (to the best of my knowledge), but it happens.
EDIT. After a quick check it turns out The Screaming... didn't have any successful MPs, although I'd swear they had at least one in the 90s. Oh well, must be misremembering.

Last post by Rev. Powell - Today at 11:40:39 AMHave any of these prank candidates ever won an election in the UK? It would send a strong message if they did.
