Fitzroy Tavern, 1 July 2010 By Bohemian Wannabe "...The Fitzroy tavern is itself steeped in history: past regulars include Dylan Thomas, George Orwell, Michael Bentine, George Bernard Shaw, Richard Attenborough, Tommy Cooper and Coco The Clown. Authors Mike Pentelow, Marsha Rowe and Paul Willetts enthralled us with tales of notorious characters such as Julian MacLaren-Ross, Nancy Cunard and Aleister Crowley. ... I enjoyed the author's passion and enthusiasm for some of their obvious "favourites".
Paul Willetts has written a biography of the author Julian Mclaren-Ross (Fear and Loathing in Fitzrovia) and he talked about how fascinated he was with the contrast between Mclaren-Ross' public persona and his private life as an author.
