Chris de Burgh and the Alien

All over the web is the news that Chris de Burgh has bought Alien 'icon'. The BBC say "He paid just under £29,875", so the bidding went to £1 increases? CdB (as I shall now call him said "I bought it because I believed it was a defining moment in cinema history for its sheer horror." and left unsaid that he also bought it because he is very rich and can just do things like that. Wouldn't that be nice, to be able to bid for your favourite movie props. I'll have.....let me think.....ermmm......oooh! I'll have Darth Vader's helmet.
