A Tale of One Cedilla
Just how did Fac 51 The Haçienda get its cedilla?
Legend has it that although Spanish has no cedilla (unlike French), Rob Gretton wanted the title of his new baby to have one so that when the ç and the i nestled up close to one another, they spelt '51'.
Next week, "How did Motörhead get their umlaut?"
