A love of eccentricity is considered part of our national identity. But what does it really mean? In his search for the quintessential English eccentric, Henry Hemming meets the founder of the worldˇ¦s foremost gnome reserve, the biker reincarnated as King Arthur, a self-styled baked-bean superhero, as well as the Marquess of Bath, Pete Doherty, Vivienne Westwood and many more, in a quest as thought-provoking as it is entertaining.
