The Lawyer seems to have missed an important name change. While perusing The Guardian last Monday, one of Tulkinghorn's scribe's spotted that Mark Stephens had been putting in his two pennies worth over the story of Victoria Beckham's escape from kidnappers.

Funny, because we always thought it was Finers Stephens Innocent. Freudian slip, Mark? Or was it those blasted journos getting it wrong?
