According to the early 13th century Egils saga, Eric's consort at York was Gunnhildr, the famous " mother of kings ".

An early suggestion is that the name for the king in York in the Life of Cathróe has been erroneously supplanted for Eric's predecessor Amlaíb Cuarán ( Olaf Sihtricsson ), whose ( second ) wife Dúnflaith was an Irishwoman.

Morecambe and Wise were very popular in Blackpool, and while starring in Show Time, at the North Pier in Blackpool in 1963, Eric's portrait was sculpted by Victor Heyfron, MA.

Eric's first teacher was the learned German Georg Norman, whose services were shortly thereafter needed elsewhere within the Swedish state.

In 1563, John was seized and tried for high treason by Eric's order.

After the Sture homicide, John was imprisoned and Eric's conflict with the nobility came to its climax.

The double wedding did not come off, but Eric's wedding to Philippa was successfully negotiated.

Perhaps Eric's most far-ranging act was the introduction of the Sound Dues ( Øresundtolden ) in 1429, which was to last until 1857.

The last stepmother of Eric's was his father's third wife Brita Turesdotter Bielke.

As Eric's nephew, Christopher, who was rather unfamiliar with Scandinavian conditions, was elected by the Danish State Council as the successor to his uncle, first as regent from 1439, and then proclaimed King of Denmark at the Viborg Assembly ( Danish landsting ) on 9 April 1440.

However, support for the idea of regionalism continued, so when Eric's nephew Christopher of Bavaria came to the throne in 1440, he managed to get himself elected in all three kingdoms, briefly reuniting Scandinavia ( 1442 – 1448 ).

When he finally manages to enter on time, Eric's rendition of the piano part is so bizarre that Previn becomes exasperated and tells Eric that he is playing " all the wrong notes ".

However, his other brother, John II, then claimed a part, so in 1321 Eric conceded Bergedorf ( with Vierlande ) to him, whose share thus became known thereafter as Saxe-Bergedorf-Mölln while Eric's was known as Saxe-Ratzeburg-Lauenburg.

Red and Kitty even went so far as to revoke their offer to pay for Eric's college tuition in a final act of desperation to put a stop to the wedding but were unsuccessful.

Eric's unit is tasked with holding the highway and village against repeated attacks by Felix Hoth's Waffen-SS armored regiment, which is fighting to clear the highway so the German divisions can escape.

Bob and Midge are somewhat risqué with each other, even going so far as to have sex in semi-public places, including inside of Eric's Vista Cruiser, and on the hammock in their backyard where Donna used to read her Nancy Drew mystery books.

Swedes believed a miracle occurred at Eric's death: a fountain was said to have sprung from the earth where the king's head fell after being chopped off.

The difference from the original was that in the Morecambe and Wise version, there is no water, except for some downpours onto Eric's head ( through a drain, or dumped out of a window, etc .).

After a year has passed in blindness and solitude, he is let out to eat at Eric's table on the anniversary of the coronation before being thrown into the dungeons again.

A falling out over Eric's knowledge of painting and restoration destroyed the relationship between Aczel and Hebborn.

It's because of Eric's deep feelings for Jaye that he is able to interpret her coolness toward him in the final episode as an indication that something is wrong — and indeed, it turns out that she is being held hostage by a bank robber at Wonder Falls.

As the first known written Swedish account, Eric's Chronicle, came out as late as the 14th century, the terms " Kvenland " and " Kven " are not found in Swedish literature.

That ' 70s Show is essentially about six friends, Eric Forman ( Topher Grace ), Michael Kelso ( Ashton Kutcher ), Steven Hyde ( Danny Masterson ), Fez ( Wilmer Valderrama ), Jackie Burkhart ( Mila Kunis ), and Donna, who are constantly getting into precarious situations and are always hanging out in Eric's basement.

When Kelso begins to date Eric's sister Laurie, Eric realizes that he wants Jackie to continue to hang out in the basement, simply because it makes Laurie uncomfortable.

Three further singles were lifted off " Liar Liar " in 1995 and 1996, Mombassa's " Nigel " which just failed to chart, a cover of Wreckless Eric's " Whole Wide World " which landed just out of the Top 50 ( Top 30 in Victoria ) and O ' Doherty's tribute to Ms Faithful, " Marianne ", which was released as the band supported Chris Issak on his 1996 tour of Australia.

They were arrested and contained, though Eric's connections with his father got them out of it.
