Bio: Quentin Willson is a motoring expert who appeared in Top Gear, Fifth Gear and Britain's Worst Driver. It was while working on Britain's Worst Driver in 2002 that he met Maureen Rees, popularly known as 'Maureen from Driving School' in the UK . Mrs Rees and Mr Willson became friendly and decided to calibrate on a new TV program, Urban Rally Star. The concept was to have members of the public race against the clock to locations around UK cities.
Channel 5 commissioned a pilot of Urban Rally Star and several hours of footage were filmed before the project was abandoned due to 'budget and safety issues', which reportedly came after a pedestrian filed a law suit after a Rally Star contestant collided with their shopping cart.
The photocopier was broken so I decided to email everyone at my work a fun fact about Quentin Wilson instead of emailing the IT guy about the broken photocopier:

Subject: Quentin Wilson The Militant Vegan
Former Top Gear presenter Quentin Willson is a self-confessed ‘Militant Vegan’.
His strong views on veganism became known to authorities after he left Top Gear in 2001 where Jeremy Clarkson roasted Quentin at his leaving dinner, referring to him as a ‘cabbage botherer’.
A drunken Quentin then broke into Clarkson’s home later that night and tried to force feed the family’s diabetic dog a cabbage before putting thirty pounds worth of cabbage into the washing machine, flooding the kitchen and causing over a thousand pounds worth of damage. Clarkson didn’t pursue criminal charges, settling for damages out of court.
Quentin is the only known ‘active’ member of the militant vegan movement.

My cousin is vegan. Going round for dinner is rubbish. She yelled at me for giving her daughter a jelly tot once. Apparently they have whale in them or something.

Is that the same brother that turned up to the Christmas party two years ago, tried it on with Sally, drank all the rum then stole the toner out of the printer?

He presents 5th Gear which Quentin Wilson was on. I would have preferred a fact about Ted Needell. His motoring knowledge greatly surpasses Willson's. Willson is a hack!
Paul, do you have any facts about Ted Needell?

No. It says 'Dixsons' on it. They are no longer in business since they got bought out by Currys, so if I lost it I wouldn't be able to replace it. It is probably quite rare and maybe worth some money.

I guessed it was valuable and sold it on eBay then bought an island with the profits. I will start my own nation on this island. It will be called Sally Land. I will put my face on all the money.
Philip, I will put your face on the penny. They will be small and annoying and no shops will take them. They will be completely pointless on Sally Land. The noble people of Sally Land will say, "What is the point of this penny? It serves no purpose. It is completely useless in this great nation. God praise our ruler Sally." Then they will throw the penny into the sea.

Can you please stop copying me into these emails.
Also, does anyone know what's up with the photocopier?
