    I'm away for most of the day, so I shall leave you with this triple teaser -

    I was born in Ireland during the 1920s.
    Like my father, I served in the Royal Navy.
    I famously impersonated the likes of Judy Garland, Liz Taylor and Margaret Thatcher.
    I was awarded an OBE in 2002.
    I passed away five years ago and was laid to rest alongside my life partner of forty years.

    I am a 53 year-old Londoner.
    The public embraced me during the 80s after a series of sporting achievements.
    My career was curtailed by a serious eye injury.
    I've acted in panto, written a best-selling autobiography and once considered standing as a Tory MP.
    I suffer from bi-polar disorder.

    I was born in Manchester during the 1930s.
    My early jobs included delivery man, journalist and brothel pianist.
    I made my name in comedy, namely for my face-pulling and dead-pan routines.
    A heavy smoker and drinker, I suffered many health problems including heart attacks and blood poisoning.
    A memorial service was held for me at Westminster Abbey.

    The winner is the first to identify all three.

    A bonus prize for anyone who can find the missing link.

    Have a good day.

    Princess Di

    Missing link is that none of these people appear in the GC backround.

    I thought the first one might be Janet Brown, but she was born in Scotchland.
