Okay, wife Jill Freud was the inspiration for C.S. Lewis's Lucy in Narnia. Who wants to do that?
[edit] First Jewish MP for Decades?
What is the basis of this statement. Rotheschild, the MP-before-last of Freuds constituency was also Jewish. Epeeist smudge 15:41, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Are we sure about his wife?
...By which I mean: "He married June Flewett (the inspiration for Lucy Pevensie in CS Lewis' children's series the Chronicles of Narnia)[1] in 1950, and the couple have five children." Because, I've just found an article that says:
Freud says he has omitted everything but the most 'uncontroversial happenings' from the text, and this is mostly true. But there are a few moments when indignation or irritation surge to the surface. In conversation, he is prepared to go further. In the book, for instance, he fudges his parents' non-appearance at his 1950 church wedding to actress Jill Raymond (who now runs two theatre companies in Suffolk). My interpretation had been that they had not been invited. But he corrects me on this. They were asked but chose, as atheists, not to attend.

Review: Interview: The Freud who hates therapy: Sir Clement Freud despises the way he was brought up but his autobiography won't reveal any family secrets. In person, though, he talks about his brother Lucian, open marriage - and his passion for ping-pong
