Belatucadrus Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 3) Cousin though it's unsure if Tiberius actually had Germanicus killed, Caligula did have Gemellus executed. Took a while to work that one out, an easier question would have been :- "Which members of their family did Emperors, Tiberius and Caligula not murder ?"

Belatucadrus Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 10) The Yorkshire ripper Peter Sutcliffe. I started at Sheffield Poly just before then and the Student union welcome pack came with the friendly heading:- "Welcome to Ripperland" Shall we say this attempt at a jest backfired Titanically with all female students and their doting parents quite understandably missing out on the humour.
