"An 111-year-old man from England is now the world’s oldest living man and says the only diet he follows is eating fish and chips every Friday."

If fish and chips is the basis of a long life, then I expect to live until the year 2196!

Alas Maggie Smith.
Much to my surprise, I found out recently that she went out with my great-uncle (grandmother's younger brother) when he was at university.
