    They were talking on the news this morning about a new design for the £5 note, and who's picture should be on the reverse. Currenbtly for example, we have Charles Darwin. The main rules are that they should be recognisable to many people, and dead. So who would you like to see on your money? Me, I'd vote for Jedwood. They may not be dead, but I see that as an opportunity, rather than a problem. :-D

      Those two sock cookers are paddies so put them on the frigging Euro, they're about worth the same. [edit] A one? What for? Sock cookers or the value of the Euro?

        That will solve the country's debt problems in one hit. Everytime you got a fiver you would want to get rid of it, thus boosting the flagging economy.

              Have a 5 in repair. Not only are Jedward the most annoying wankers to come from Ireland since Henry Kelly, but the Euro is Trash too, so I ought to give two fives. Alas, I cannot.

                        How about Tim Berners-Lee? Brian Cox? Someone intelligent who has done something worthwhile with their life, who can stand as a role model for children.

                          They fail to meet one of the key requirements, they're not dead ;P One of the front runners however is Alan Turing.

                          He who makes a beast out of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.
