Iris was there: tinkering with the spaceship design on the ''[[Star Wars]]'' set, upsetting [[Andy Warhol|Warhol]]'s films in the Factory, sexing it up with [[Geoffrey Chaucer|Chaucer]], conjuring [[ghost]]s with Kate Bush, cross-dressing and undressing with Fanny and Stella, and arguing for her very existence with a nefarious biographer known as [[Paul Magrs|Magrs]]… | [[Iris Wildthyme|Iris]] has always been a bit of a name-dropper.
