There is an obvious burning question about his great grandfather's parentage.

Not sure if it is still a legitimate question these days?

Still, can you enlighten us?

Relax. His great grandmother was Lloyd George's daughter Olwen.

She did not die until 1990. I remember hearing her interviewed: "I always give the old boy a 'thank you' when I go to collect my pension."
