    2 cricketers, 1 umpire, 1 tv chef, 1 newsreader, 2 tories and Thatchers lapdog. Ffs

    Percy shaw. Invented cats eyes
    Joseph priestly, discovered oxygen.
    Harry brearley. Invented stainless steel.

    Just three yorkshiremen off the top of my head who have impacted on billions of peoples lives for generations and kind of knock James Martins perfect souffle or bernard ingham nasty politics into a cocked hat
