 * Symbol question.svg Lots of refs - good length and I know its basis cos I heard the radio programme! Actually I think the facial expert said they were similar but they were definitely different people. Very good anyway! I did tick this and then thought that the hook may be a tadge strong. Could you phrase a hook like "his own sons were sure that Henry Maxim was their father Cantelo" or something similar... Victuallers (talk) 18:47, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Agreed...
 * ALT1: ... that William Cantelo invented an early machine gun then mysteriously disappeared?
