    The term 'grammar nazi' was invented to make people, who don't know their grammar, feel OK about being uneducated.

    I thought Mr Kipling was the bloke who makes cakes. Exceedingly good ones, if memory serves.

    Let's recap the clues :

    There was a book ( also a movie ) named after this man.
    He claimed that no man need ever be ashamed of being beaten by him.
    The baddy man's name was xxxxxxxx Wilson
    His character in the movie was portrayed by a big "Lad"
    This man was on the side of the little people who needed his help.
    Clint Eastwood played a part in another movie along very similar lines.
