When Chris Rea appeared on an early edition of Countdown he scored a ten letter word in every round, despite the rumours it was found to be pure coincidence that he and Richard Whiteley were members of the same lodge.

Chris Rea is officially twinned with the village of Wetwang a Yorkshire Wolds village and civil parishin the East Riding of Yorkshire, England, 6 miles (10 kilometres) west of Driffield on the A166 road. This involves the yearly cultural exchange visit to Wetwang on the Eve of ChrisRea Mass, allegedly the basis for that song...
It has recently been shown that due to another Turdis glitch, Chris was taken to Stamford Bridge close to Wetwang, but it was 1066, where the sudden and unexpected appearance of the Turdis, scared both the English army, and the invading Norwegian Vikings, as both groups ran away, they met each other, and due to a fight or flight response, the Vikings were massacred in what became known as the battle of Stamford Bridge, Chris does try to keep this quiet

Dunno why, but Clooney doesn't play slide geetaaar ! Although he might be able to hold a tune, he sang in Some of the Coen Brothers films but possibly that was dubbed.

The ozone hole over Antarctica is the exact size and shape of Chris Rea's TURDIS, although the gravel toned songster maintains that this, and the ozone stains on the TURDIS, are nothing more than a coincidence.

Guilty as charged, but George Clooney stole the part in O Brother Where For Art Thou, that was Chris Rea’s as head of The Soggy Bottom Boys, Chris was fuming as he would not have lip synced the singing parts

Chris Rea once used the TURDIS to nip back and visit Robin Hood.

Unfortunately the glowing Auberge Field was highly visible above Sherwood Forest and gave the Sheriff of Nottingham's men an easy target.
Hood was to die painfully with a red hot poker up his bottom, while Rea quickly scarpered before someone noticed it was he that had changed history yet again.

Chris Rea is an accomplished animal trainer. He specialises in small rodents and has his own mouse circus, with mouse clowns and trapeze artists, mouse rat-tamers and a hamster ringmaster. He is at pains to emphasise that his training methods are relatively ethical, not very painful and only infrequently fatal.

Chris Rea was slated to play the male lead in Pretty Woman, but the director refused to rewrite the script so the hero drove a time machine instead of a Lotus.
