Talk:London Borough of Islington

Untitled

I dispute the reversion of my edits. 'Male prison' is ungrammatical, as it implies the institution has a gender. How can a prison be male? My edit, on the other hand, explained clearly the basis of the gender division between the two incarceration institutions. 86.139.197.33 (talk) 21:35, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

In popular culture

This seems like trivia to me so I moved it to talk. RJFJR (talk) 19:14, 13 March 2011 (UTC)

In Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, three of the four main characters (Arthur Dent, Trillian, and Zaphod Beeblebrox) first met at a "fancy dress party" at a flat in Islington. Another character, Hotblack Desatio, is named after a chain of estate agents active in the Islington area.

• Brittany Murphy's character in Love and Other Disasters almost gets married at Islington Town Hall (she calls it off in the middle of the ceremony).
