Tallman Smith was grown in a petri dish using the cryogenically frozen sperm of Robert Wadlow and the incubated egg of Jane Bunford. Within days he was six foot and after over-coming an early battle with anxiety, he decided to embrace his striking appearance and has been running amok in the capital ever since. Tallman likes pashminas, the River Thames and surprising David Cameron by peering in at his first floor window. The Downing Street policemen co-operate once given a Brick Lane bagel. Tallman loves writing and prides himself on telling it like it is. He hopes to one day be the tallest man to win the Nobel Peace Prize.
