Look, here I am trying to raise the standard of my posts to at least factual drivel and this is the thanks I get. Probably Pink Floyd.

It was only given the title Boss Cat in the UK because the good old Beeb didn't want to be seen to be advertising Top Cat moggy food. Those were the days when Blue Peter would have to put masking tape over Ski yoghurt pots to avoid any product placement. Safe to say the BBC now have no such qualms over commercialisation!

I'll bet you that a shed load of pop/rock stars have knowingly/unknowingly had underage sex. You can just picture them leaving a gig telling their minders to bring her,her and her to the hotel.
