Six degrees of separation?

I can get from Sheila Ferguson of the Three Degrees to Idi Amin in three easy moves.

Before I get a virtual whoopin' for thread wandering, the link is the Three Degrees played at Buckingham Palace for Charle's 30th birthday, and six years earlier Amin had been guest of honour at a State banquet at the Palace in 1971.

Reportedly his speech at the dinner was...
'Mr. Queen, sir, horrible ministers, invented guests, ladies under gentlemen. I thank the Queen very plenty for what he has done to me.
I tell you, I have eaten so much that I am now fed up with malicious meal.
Before I undress the Queen, let me remove my testicles.'

With that mind he would have been great at playing six degrees of separation.
