Two Dave Banks
On BBC Radio 5 Live’s program Double Take on Sunday morning they had a problem.
Both guests were called Dave Banks.
I had to go out, so I didn’t see if it led to any large amounts of hilarity.
I have a very common name and I’ve actually met three people who use the same first and last name combination I do.
I’ve always thought it an idea for a television show to get twenty with the same name and their partners to have a weekend in a hotel and then record what happens. You’d have to be careful about the hotel you choose.
The Anonymous Widower 
I arrived at a conference once, and found the hotel had assumed that myself and a male delegate with the same surname were a couple! That was despite the fact we lived 90 minute drive away from each other! it was easily sorted, and we laughed about it, but it could have caused all sorts of issues.
