QUIRKY WORLD ... Driver can go to infinity and beyond as he becomes Buzz

ENGLAND: A man who changed his name to Buzz Lightyear for charity has won a year-long battle with the DVLA to have a driving licence in his new name.

Mr Lightyear, formerly Sam Stephens, changed his name by deed poll to raise money for CLIC Sargent, a cancer charity for children and young people.

Letters sent from the DVLA claimed his name could bring the company into disrepute as Buzz Lightyear was a “fictional character”, he said.
