He's got the most famous voice in the world and brain as big as a planet but Prof. Stephen Hawking was a lazy div at college. Only did an hour of work a day at Oxford to get his first.
He says:"You were supposed to be brilliant without effort. I'm not proud of this lack of work, I'm just describing my attitude of complete boredom and the feeling that nothing was worth making an effort for." It's a view shared by many a lad in saggy jeans. Maybe the prof is telling a few porkies here. Everyone goes into exams saying they've done no work at all. Only the dipsticks are taken in.
Anyone with half a brain is hoovering it up big-time - granted only the night before - and then planning to dump the lot before it wafts away in a fine mist. The prof put his time in for sure. He's even got a heat source named after him, Hawking radiation, where stars leak energy and fade. Few like that on Strictly.
Only a famous egg-head could claim to do nowt and get on. The rest of us know better.
