OK, so I read it the first time you posted it - still can't see any relevance to Ned Sherrin, though the Wiki entry does contain this gem:

Quote from: Wikipedia
"Philistines", a word which derives its modern cultural meaning (in English - the German-language usage was well established) from him.

Is that what you are alluding to? If so, wouldn't it have been easier to just say so?

I can't stand it when that happens  ::)

It's like the "Levi's ad. music" ... no it's not. It's a sarabande by Handel.  Besides, anybody who's anybody knows Handel wrote it for Kubrick's Barry Lyndon  ;)
