R4 Famous Owners

[Eoynteenie]

Ok challenge from work

Who is famous and has a connection with a Renault Four?

I have a silent film called Traffic with an R4 F6 camper (is a what the hell film) and the film Leap Year

but work want more. Damn footballers ¬ ¬

Jo Whiley from Radio 1 drives an R4.

Another film starring an R4 is Rien à Declarer, they also feature in Les Visiteurs and briefly in Les Bronzés font du Ski. There was a TV show called Les Saintes Chéries where the family drove a lovely Parisienne.

Talking of films, there is a R4 in Team America: World Police. See http://www.teamamericaprops.com/TeamAmerica/TeamAmerica_Renault4.htm

I'm surprised that R4 still exists, I watched a "making of" featurette where they blew up pretty much every scene and prop during filming!
