Nicky and James both claim each other is still frightened of the title sequence for "I, Claudius" but one is lying and one is telling the truth...

Nicky is secretly a massive royalist, to the extent that at weekends he & Rachel dress up as The Queen and Prince Phillip and have tea parties. Nicky dresses up as The Queen.

Sean and James on the other hand have a secret sideline as the world's grumpiest Chuckle Brothers tribute act.

During the GT era, Richey was lead vocalist, and during live performances, James was infact the only member miming.
When asked why he never sang live, Richey claimed it just added to his mysterious persona.

In the infamous TOPT Faster performance James wore a balaclava because in his own words 'its a bit like y'know, nippy out there innit'. His name was on it as his mummy didn't want him to lose it (again).

Richey had a crush on Kurt Cobain. Dave Grohl was jealous.

Slash N Burn is about a really bad case of cystitis that Nicky once had, which he cured by drinking coke, as suggested by Madonna.

Nicky has the phrase "I slept with Richey!" copyrighted to him, you have to pay him each time you use it.

James has a severe allergy to pastry.

Sean will be taking his first solo stand up show to Edinburgh this year. It's called "Moore Than Funny."

Nicky travels largely by hovercraft. He also has hover-boots. Nicky prefers to travel at least three inches from the ground at all times.

Richey used to make intricate models of well known landmarks using Nicky Wire's toenail cuttings. His Eiffel Tower was paticularly impressive.
