Alan Coren looked old even then! I remember having to do an art project at my snottily posh grammar school for the Silver Jubilee. I took a moulded chocolate mousse tub, filled it with putty, painted it silver and stuck a fifty pence piece on the top and called it a paperweight. It was awful. When I had to present it the putty hadn't set so it was fairly wobbly. A case of look but don't touch. My art teacher thought it was a masterpiece and awarded me 10+. I'm sure it would be worth, oh at least 50p today.
