Researching Manx history back to 'the big bang' has convinced author Derek Winterbottom that American businessman David Drew Howe has absolutely no claim as King of Mann.
Mr Howe (pictured, right) is currently using the title to launch a new project aimed at helping AIDS orphans in Sub-Saharan Africa.
But Mr Winterbottom (left) - talking to Stuart Peters about his new book 'Profile of the Isle of Man' - says the claim shouldn't be taken too seriously:

Jack Sheppard suffered a skull base fracture
