Probably Australia or South America (Argentina/Chile) - not French. I find French wines (generally) dull. New Zealand for a very nice Sauvignon Blanc though.

I'm not hugely knowledgeable about vodka but I understand Grey Goose is a good one.

Ah well, I am rather partial to a good Chateauneuf Du Pape - when I'm in the mood to splash out.

it's from the article "And now for something completely different..." Classic FM magazine November 2006

it's a quote from RP about how he keeps the sound so consistent.

'The boys are terrific mimics,' says Prizeman. They listen to each other, the younger ones learning from the older ones. This way the sound is passed on. It's remarkably consistent across all our albums'

Or mayb he learnt to speak arund american

I think I heard once that Ben p is actually an American citizen and that his dad is as well. Something about his dad wanted his children from the same nationality as he so the philipp kids were all born in the us.

Indeed - see the 'Zak left?' thread near the bottom of the News board - page 5ish iirc.

Benedict Philipp is actually from the Philippines. His last name is an abbreviation of Philippines, hence Philipp. It's proven when he sang Bayan K'o in his concert in the Philippines. His solo lyrics were, in Tagalogue:

Ang bayan kong pilipinas
Lupain ng gonto't bulaklak

which translates in English to:

My country the Philippines
Land of gold and flowers
