Didn't see any pictures of the charming couple. Anything online?
Edit: Never mind, I found something on the Daily Mail's website. Cheap M&S looking suit on him. Actually she looks alright to me, in a slightly "dirty girl" kind of way.

Never fear Jason, the Brits have many, many words they can use, and they're continuously evolving - in this respect the Queens English is QUITE different, and much more varied then the dumbed down American version....

I agree entirely. In at least 95% of discussions I find myself in the side of free speech (including various incitement to hatred-du-jour laws) but I really do think that criminals should not be permitted to profit from their crimes by selling their stories.
I admit, however, it's not easy to know where to draw the line. What about reformed criminals who write rather thoughtful books about their past life decades later, for example?

As a slight aside, does anyone remember the Mini ad that claimed it "Nipped in and out like Ronnie Biggs"? Wonderful, and I assume he didn't make a penny from it? Mind, if I'd been living in Rio with a much younger girlfriend, maybe I wouldn't have cared either....
