Yes - and a timely thread there as I have also just come across this newspaper article where the journalist, as usual, doesn't know a speedo from a night-gown.

Daniel Craig wears "tiny trunks" (far from it) and David Beckham has Speedos (no they aren't - it is Emporio Armani) ( and after all one would expect nothing less of brand-concious Becks)
Inaccuracies aside it seems that I had better demand the side seam measurement in purchasing my "swim shorts" - these being the only acceptable male beach attire this season, according to the travel company "survey".
