The character Rita, in "Educating Rita" was based on a real person called Rita who went to my school quite few years before I did.

True story here.
For years my brothers and I believed that the celebrated botanist/biologist David Bellamy was our uncle. He looks amazingly similar to our old man; rotund, grey-haired and big beard so it wasn't to hard for our old man to convince us as 8 year olds. The only thing we were concerned about is why we hadn't had an awesome christmas/birthday present from this famous relative.
This cruel trick on our youthful gullability was to backfire when my brothers cub pack were all awarded their conservation badge for some do-gooding activity and it was presented by a VIP, David Bellamy. When he gets to my brothers they say "hi uncle david, my dad tells us you're his brother". He replied "no I'm not" and walked off. When my old man turns up at cubs to pick them up my brothers drag him over to David Bellamy and try and get him to "remember" our dad/his brother.
Needless to say our old man couldn't get away quick enough and hasn't tried to convince us of famous relatives since.
