1D, Calvin Harris and Ed Sheeran have been named among the most influential people in the UK

One Direction

Non-stop LOL merchants One Direction have been named on a list of the most influ­en­tial people in the UK, reports Billboard.

Niall 'et al' were listed alongside the likes of Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, Calvin Harris and laughing boy James Blake on the annual Debrett's 500 list, which aims to celebrate British people being good at stuff.

Or to put it another way the list "shines a spotlight on the people who are making the most impact on this fast-changing industry, from the recording artists and record label exec­ut­ives, to the radio playlist-setters, music critics and the people changing the face of the music industry in the digital age."

Poor Union J.

You can see the full music list here if you like but let's be honest it doesn't tell you anything you don't already know.
