25 Strauss

Possible connection: They have all captained England in Cricket, and have all been captains to win the Ashes. (not sure what wording they want or if this is the right answer).Never put tables and chairs in the same room.
If they congregate together for any length of time, they will inevitably hatch plots against you and your pets.
