    Her son is in Russia I think - recently released her biography. Mrs BP got a few pages - and was just above Adolf Hitler in the index(and real life aggression...).

    I should add it was not her kids who fleeced her, but Ted Hughes.

    I believe Conrad Black and some of the other Telegraph stalwarts made sure she did not suffer.

    Someone in my class at school is currently 'doing an eight stretch' for stealing the best part of £1 million off OAPs. Nasty bit of work at school so nothing changed in the intervening years.
