So are you all comfortable with someone being paid out of the licence fee who thinks that's his job description, coz I'm not.
Since it's obviously tongue-in-cheek enough that it's printed in GIANT LETTERS ON A PUBLIC PHOTO I'd have to say I'm perfectly comfortable with it. It's also clearly an empty name that they liked the sound of, I mean I'm called Sput on here but that doesn't mean I'm a silver sphere orbiting the Earth in the 60s.

Try as I might, I can't picture you as a bumbling inventor.. The title in front of the letter makes things seem a bit more enigmatic.

I await the Daily Mail getting hold of that picture and finding a "Blackops=Racist" angle to demand an apology about.
