WE STARTED OUT LIKE ROMEO AND JULIET, BUT IT ENDED IN TRAGEDY: You could probably forgive Millhouse for not knowing the end of the tale, but how mad do you reckon Posh and Becks will be when one of them makes it throught their PA's precis of the Brodie's Notes version of the play? We were a mite surprised to find Today covering the name of the pop singer and football person's second kid, a birth which doubled the available IQ in the family at a stroke; but they did a pretty good job of it - when you think about it, calling up MC Romeo from the So Solid Crew and getting him to give an opinion on whether he was the inspiration for the name could actually be the most subtle Breakfast Show wind-up call in history. But while Alistair McGowan's scriptwriters sit down, racing to be the first to get the lines "He's not just a movie, he's a book as well" onto the producer's desk, debating if "and if it was a girl, it would have been Veronica, after the Two Gentlemen of Veronica" is too highbrow for BBC1, let's end the speculation as to the name right here. He's called Rome0 because they couldn't work out how you're meant to pronounce Juventus2.
