Yahoo News – Britons are losing their grip on reality, according to a poll out Monday which showed that nearly a quarter think Winston Churchill was a myth while the majority reckon Sherlock Holmes was real.
The survey found that 47 percent thought the 12th century English king Richard the Lionheart was a myth.
And 23 percent thought prime minister Churchill was made up. The same percentage thought Crimean War nurse Florence Nightingale did not actually exist.
