I used to have a pet Finch named Peter.

Well my other Finch was called Cristobel after the actress who at that time played Tracey Barlow in Corrie

The clip was an interesting observation. I've started watching much less telly even though I was bought a freeview box for Xmas.

Well I don't know any other famous Finch's. That's probably why I didn't have anymore. No pet of mine has ever had a bog-standard name. For example Crap was a fish, Pellet was a rabbit, Gums was a Gecko and Noodle still is a Poodle :rolleyes:
