SIR CLEAN: So, Mick finally got the knighthood he wanted, which might be why he's now running round trying to stop his chauffeur from tittle-tattling about him in his book and in newspapers, taking out an injunction this week to stop things appearing. What's strange is that we'd read somewhere that Jagger had been happy for his former driver to print the book, because the allegations of sexual doo-daddery from the wrinkly rubbery one helped fuel the view of the Stones as wild things rather than OAPs. But it seems the segment that's causing Mick to be disatisfied deals with other celebs. Curious... Of course, it could all just be a push to try and raise our interest further. In which case, damn, it worked.
