To be fair, even I got the answer after that last clue*, having never even watched Big Brother, and was just typing it in a fancy way when Marc's popped up.

Re: Pass the time?
It's spelled Edison on Pele's wikipedia page, although I can't be arsed to argue whether that's the official spelling or not.
Being the sporting statto and wordsmith that I am, I managed without a solver to figure out the scramble was Pele's full name (not many footballers have got names of 25 letters), although I did have to google "Pele" to find out exactly what his first names were.
Looks like James has set a new scramble so I'll leave off setting a new one for now.

Wait, no he doesn't, the lying bastard, he calls himself Pele.
(Edit to add that I really should have checked before attempting the correction, but I was positive I've only ever seen Edson )
