Ronnie O'sulivan's Novel.

[andy-hughes]

I have just started reading Ronnie O'Sullivan's novel Framed - set in Soho's gangland and around a snooker club - fair enough, write what you know.

But Ronnie needs to check his memory, or get a better copy editor for his next book - his main character refers to a time when he and his younger brother pretended to be Paul Newman in The Great Escape.

Now I am no film buff by any stretch of the imagination, but I do know that Paul Newman wasn't in The Great Escape!!

Tut tut Ronnie, must do better!

I suppose that is just one of 147 errors in the book.

[andy-hughes]

I'll let you know!

Probably getting mixed up between the Great Escape and The Hustler.

I haven't Red it myself, which I guess is a Black mark against me.

That'll be my cue to leave :P

[tonyav]

Cheer up, jim. You're sounding Blue.

[goodgoalie]

Is this all his own work, or is it in the same vein as those 'novels' by Katie Price and Naomi Campbell - ie written by somebody else?

[Ellipsis]

Paul Newman got out of The Great Escape, leaving Steve McQueen in the frame.

Is it a pocket book?

[tonyav]

Give it a rest.

[agchristie]

And there was Andy Hughes right on cue ;-)

[snags]

How many eggs did Steve Mcqueen eat in Cool Hand Luke?

[agchristie]

Is it part of a canon?

[gollob]

It's set in Iraq

Reading a novel by Ronnie O'Sullivan sounds about as appealing as watching J. K. Rowling play snooker.

Talbot
Bound to be a load of balls.

[Mamyalynne]

Just chalk it up to inexperience.

Harry was a great Potter though. Give JK her due.

[agchristie]

Did he write it hastily during a break?

[aelmpvw]

someone should get a rocket for that mistake ...

I also tried reading it but there were so many mistakes, my eyes baized over. So i took a rest.
