Not the great Professor Stephen Hawking, who died this morning but his “biggest fan”, Peter Stringfellow. Today, the self-styled lord of the lapdance paid an emotional tribute on Twitter to “Professor Stephen Harking”, which brought to mind an interview with Stringfellow in which he claimed his favourite book was A Brief History of Time by “Professor Stephen Hawkins”. Odd for such a big fan to keep getting his idol’s name wrong. Though funnier still is the thought of him even attempting to read A Brief History Time. A detailed treatise on astrophysics and quantum mechanics, it’s an impenetrably complex and difficult book. Pete’s failure to get the author’s name right suggests that he’s never even opened it. So maybe it’s best of he just sticks to singing along to records like this.
Oh, Christ. He’s done it again.
