In an article about the launch of Channel 4's new TV Book Club - which will no doubt take over the mantle of Richard and Judy's ditto - it is revealed that an Asda supermarket survey (yes, we know!) found the following:- "...17pc of children think Fagin is a Manchester United footballer and 40pc think Moby Dick is a pop star. Meanwhile 60pc of children have never heard of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea, while 25pc think it is a song by The Beatles and 10pc think it is the title of Simon Cowell’s autobiography. Almost 30pc have read Harry Potter but just 3pc have read Of Mice and Men. Conversely 50pc can name David Beckham’s autobiography (My Side)."
