Roy Chubby Brown is my uncle.
John Surtee's is my nans cousin, unsure if that makes me related at all....

I think you are mistaking Cleo Laine (http://www.britannica.com/eb/art/print?id=73428&articleTypeId=0) for Cleo Rocos (http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/entertainment/film_and_tv/s/232/232232_celeb_bb_cleo_rocos_factfile.html) ;-)
Larry Grayson is / was my uncle's cousin. Bet he's not saying shut that door now!!
My grans maiden name was Baskerville, and the wealthy part of the baskerville family lived in a big house on dartmoor and were friendly with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle apparently, when his Sherlock Holmes novels became too popular for him to work in London without distraction the family invited him down to dartmoor to write his latest Sherlock Holmes novel which later became,unsurprisingly, 'The hound of the Baskervilles', oh and me dad played football with Sir Stanley Matthews.
I went to school with Amir Khan, in a few of his lessons too.
My wifes cousin is Danni Walker who plays Tracey Beaker (for those with kids)

Sterling Moss
You could at least learn how to spell the old boy's name correctly. I've met Sir Stirling a couple of times, he's a real character.

When I was 14 or 15 I went out with a girl from a mate's youth club, who then went on to have a couple of number one hits. I am too much of a gent to divulge her name and what we got up to, but she was a fun lass.
