Who nose what her real name is?
POLICE are appealing for help to identify a woman who has
lost her memory - and is convinced she is Barry Manilow.
The 60-year-old was admitted to hospital wearing a turban and
clutching a bag full of the big-nosed crooner's records.
She cannot remember her real name and will answer only to
Barry.
The mystery woman, who is 5ft 4in and suffers from alopecia,
told staff at Lincoln County Hospital she might once have lived
in Bournemouth and was possibly married to a man called
James.
A police spokesman said: 'We need to hear from anyone who knows
a woman who answers to the name of Barry Manilow, we are not
Joking".
'She has a shrill voice with no discernible accent.'
'Someone must know of her, especially as she is so
unique.'
