I watched some episodes of Glee a few years ago but I can only remember the little gay boy and the the trackie-wearing butch teacher.

He was super famous in our house. Two sad "yoof" daughters this weekend. They will get over it.

Sad to hear of the death of Bert Trautmann. Although apparently he's still going to carry on playing.
