Okay, here are two of my favourite bits of trivia:

Uncles and Nephews

Hamo Thornycroft was a famous English sculptor in Victorian times (eg the statue of Alfred the Great in Winchester). He had a famous nephew. Who was he?

Aubrey de Selincourt was a well-known English scholar and translator (eg the Penguin Histories of Herodotus). He too had a famous nephew. Who was he?
