If I hadn't already met Charlie's dad I'd be suspicious...

My dad is now rather suspicious himself.

So, you think Charlie might be Dr. Phil's illegitimate offspring, and that the oh-so-nice seeming "strawberry blonde" (my arse) DC guest is manipulating the finals behind the scenes to ensure a win for his secret progeny? That's utterly, contemptibly, ludicrous.

Except...

I've just realised the title of this thread is an anagram of "Mr. Red-haired MO has man-child plan". :shock:

That can't be a coincidence.

Phil, did you use an anagram solver to find that or just randomly see it? Because that's actually one of the most incredible things I've ever seen.

Ha. It just randomly occurred to me, looking at the thread title, that the phrase "red-haired child" was probably in that collection of letters; checked it out and, when I found that it was, wondered whether the whole phrase might have an amusing anagram. I then spent odd spare moments over the course of that evening trying to make something out of the remaining letters. At one point, quite late on, I had a complete collection of words (with no unused letters) that didn't seem to form a meaningful sentence, and was about to give up and go to bed when I suddenly hit on the word order that I posted plus the little backstory to go with it.

When have I said anything about Stewart? Jason, I genuinely have no idea what you're talking about.

I thought you were talking about him in your original post.

I'm sorry.

Ha...'Charlie Reams' is an anagram of 'I smear Rachel'. :lol:

Also 'Junaid Mubeen' becomes 'u mundane jibe' (although that is not as good).

'Kai Laddiman' - 'I am a kind lad' :D

Well, Charlie's anagram is a lot better than if he were still called Soo. ;)

I must not understand the connection between Charlie and Dr. Phil but I must say, Kai, you are brilliant!
