Weighing in at three hundred pounds, and a tickling stick

Just had an ace idea for a new gameshow. Presenting...."It's All In The Name".

Influenced by Celebrity Wrestling with a touch of Spinal Tap, this is a no-holds-barred, bone-shattering duel to the death (all right, we'll settle for intensive care) between celebrities of all shapes and sizes, where the match-ups are determined purely on the basis of a shared first name.

No, work with me here. And consider the possibilities:

- Ann Widdecombe taking on Ann Robinson
- George Best versus George Clooney
- Tom Cruise versus Tom O'Connor
- David Hasselhoff takes on David Lynch
- Bruce Forsyth versus Bruce Campbell

Any other ideas welcome. Does anyone have the number for the ITV Commissioning Department? I seriously think we've got a hit on our hands.
