Jonathan. As I know you are fan of these kind of connections you might already know Kenneth Horne is from good Liberal Stock. In case not, this is his wiki entry: 'Charles Kenneth Horne[3] was the seventh and youngest child of Charles Silvester Horne and his wife, the Hon. Katherine neé Cozens-Hardy.[4] Silvester Horne was a Congregationalist minister, Liberal MP for Ipswich, and powerful orator. His maternal grandfather was Herbert Cozens-Hardy, the Liberal MP for North Norfolk who became both the Master of the Rolls and Baron Cozens-Hardy on 1 July 1914.
