Something that really irritates me in articles such as this, is that newspapers always insist MK grew up in Blyth, Northumberland, after moving from Glasgow, when in all of the biographies we are told that after leaving Glasgow the family settled  in Gosforth, Newcastle, where MK attended Archibald Primary and Gosforth Grammar, which are both about 15 miles from Blyth!  Obviously journalists must just look at Wikipedia and repeat the same wrong information from there. ::)
