Amy Winehouse has topped a list of celebrities who feature in British people's nightmares, according to a new survey, carried out by Travelodge. Others in the list include Gordon Brown, Alistair Darling, Cherie Blair, Marilyn Manson, Heather Mills and The Cheeky Girls. Of all of those, I'm most glad I've never had a nightmare featuring The Cheeky Girls.
Leigh McCarron of Travelodge said: "A nightmare is much more intense than a bad dream, it can arouse feelings of fear, horror and distress. It replicates our deepest fears and can reflect the different types of stresses we face in our waking world. It's no wonder Gordon Brown and Alistair Darling are making a special appearance in our nightmares at the moment, both symbolise the fears we are facing in today's economy".
