Who would you want to shackle to your kitchen sink?

Soon after winning a best actor Scottish Bafta award for his work in The Last King Of Scotland James announced his plans quit acting and become a house husband.

He said: "I have been in employment for a long time, so I am taking a bit of a break.

"I've done enough for a while and people get fed up of seeing you, but apart from that, although I'm young, I need a bit of rest. You could say I have become a house husband.

"It's not a new-man thing, it's just largely a boring-man-who-doesn't-mind-staying-in-the-house thing."

It got us to thinking...

Who else would we like to chain to the homestead?

They'd have to keep our kitchens spotless, get all our laundry and ironing done, sweep the floors, cook the dinner, keep the fires burning and give our pipes a darn good clean. Titter.
