Re: Nelson at Trafalgar 2012

Joe Orton, the controversial playwright (Entertaining Mr Sloane, Loot etc) was a prolific letterwriter under the nom de plume Edna Welthorpe & others.
One of his japes was to announce that he planned to stage a play "Nelson was a Nance" outraging locals. When one of his letters to the editor didnt elicit replies, he supplied them himself using other false names.

Just a bit of useless information my brain regurgitates on occasion.
