It has recently come to light that the initial plans for a time travel machine were acquired from a top secret, highly classified project, headed by fellow musician, record producer, audio engineer & songwriter Alan Parsons, Chris Rea took them whilst checking out Mr Parsons studio whilst saying he was considering Alan for his next album, the plans under code name The Alan Parsons Project, gave Chris Rea a head start on building the Turdis, leaving Alan Parsons with the music side of the project, where he got some very clever session musicians to record a few tracks, then work on the time travel machine with him, being absolutely furious about the time travel plans going missing, but being unable to do anything about it, as it sounded like a cheap conspiracy theory, he has, however pinched Chris Rea's special electric Brompton from outside the Co-op in Middlesbrough

Chris Rea's first job was nights switching on every individual cat's eye on the North-bound A1 from Darlington to Gateshead (you know, by the Metro Centre) until he was able to swap shifts with Eddie Blenkinsop. He then felt safer when he was able to switch them off in the mornings because there weren't as many cars on the road then.

Chris Rea’s moleskin trousers are actually made from mole skins that he 'harvested' from his estate. He says no cruelty was involved as he classes moles as vegetables as they live in the ground.

Chris Rea's ongoing feud with Richard Madeley goes on apace, after finding out Richard Madeley has purchased a dairy farm, complete with a bottling plant, a herd of cows and a milk float, Chris Rea has been sneaking in at night to feed the cows garlic bread & rogan josh curry sauce in order to make the milk taste "funny" unfortunately the Garlic & Curry flavoured milk is selling in huge amounts, as a specialist dairy product, with a price premium too, Chris Rea can't believe Richard Madeley's luck, and having tried the milk, can't believe it's not butter either!

The source of the fued between Chris Rea and Richard Madeley goes back to 1992.

Rea had been at a house party to which Madeley was also invited. As Rea left the Auberge Drive of the TURDIS melted and deformed a Mars Bar that Madeley habitually carried in case he bumped into Marianne Faithfull and fancied his chances.

Madeley discovered the deformed treat and passed it off as his own, putting it into production and making millions from the confection.

Just to add insult to financial injury, Madeley decided to name the new sweetie after Rea's unruly beard, and thus the Curly Wurly was the source of a decades old feud that has cost millions of pounds and several lives.
