If I have a hierarchy of models such that:

class A(models.Model):
    name = CharField(max_length=10)

class B(models.Model):
    name = CharField(max_length=10)
    a= ForeignKey(A)

class C(models.Model):
    name = CharField(max_length=10)
    b= ForeignKey(B)

If I have an instance of C, as returned by:

c = C.objects.get(pk=1)

How do I get the name of A?

I realise I can go via B, but I am hoping to be able to follow the
chain back to A from any arbitrary point in (a much longer) chain.

For example:
If this was repeated up to F in an identical manner.
If I pass a function any instance from A to F I would want to return
A.name.

I am sure there must be a simple way to get the root data, but I am
having trouble finding it.

Kind Regards
Stephen
