A brave girl indeed taking on the Iron Lady as a mother-in-law. Braver still to leave the happy family. I thought I saw the Baron Margeret Thatcher in the last Dr Who series?

He was once described by the Financial Times newspaper as "a sort of Harrovian Arthur Daley with a famous mum". I always wondered what you had to do to get knighted.

Absolutely nothing. It's what his dad did. His (and indeed Baroness Thatcher's) title dates from the time when hereditary ones were still given.
Tony - thanks for that image. Excuse me while I throw up!
