Neanderthals 'were flame-haired'

Some Neanderthals were probably redheads, a DNA study has shown.

Researchers extracted DNA from remains of two Neanderthals and retrieved part of an important gene called MC1R (MC Ginger Minger)

In modern people, a change - or mutation - in this gene causes red hair, but, until now, no one knew what hair colour our extinct relatives had.

By analysing a version of the gene in Neanderthals, scientists found that they also have sported fiery locks.

The researchers found that Neanderthals carried a unique variant of the ginger gene thankfully not present in modern humans.

Big Boys DO cry - boo hoo - three tears for the English

I couldn't beleive my eyes

Grown men weeping after the semi final - what happened to the Agincourt spirit - raise a big two fingers to the frogs and then wind them roung a beer mug.

Couple of essential phrases for the coming week:-

Ou sont vos lunettes, monsieur L'arbitre?

Venez m'emporter, o chariot doux

vous klaxonnez

Vous saop esquive, l'escargot mâche la grenouille
