Last night, Scooter and I (some of you know Scooter) were playing with the Oracle of Bacon and found the first screen credit in the IMDB that's linked to the Kevin Bacon universe. The person is more well known for something else.

The Oracle says:
King Edward VII
has a Bacon number of 4.

King Edward VII
was in Engelska konungaparets besok i Stockholm (1908)
with Queen Alexandra

Queen Alexandra
was in Great Love, The (1918)
with Lillian Gish

Lillian Gish
was in Sweet Liberty (1986)
with Lynne Thigpen

Lynne Thigpen
was in Novocaine (2001)
with Kevin Bacon

Edward VII first appeared in "Le Prince de Galles" in 1892. That's the third year in the IMDB.

And I think it's awesome that it goes through Lillian Gish and Lynne Thigpen.

Cool! But who else was in Le Prince de Galles? Only people who had never been in anything else?

Just him. It ws probably a few minutes of him waving or something. ("Galles" is Wales. He was still the heir at the time.)
