I'm here for a short while before I resume my responsibilities. And here's a little weekend quiz for you.
The following are twelve people or peoples. You've got to tell me who they are. They've all done the same job at some time in their lives. And most of them are bloody good at this job.
Good luck. There will be no prize for the most correct answers.
Thanks to Betty for her help and the London Lite for its inspiration.

oh hang on, the rest are so easy and I'll just spoil it for everyone else!
I would love to join in but I'm a member of the EAC, soz.
ReplyDelete7: Martin Rushant.
ReplyDeleteMurph - 1,2,4,6: correct! I don't think 3 was known as Martin H. And 5 is not Billy Ray Charles (or Cyrus). Sorry some of them are too easy - that's why MENSA haven't asked me to set any questions.
ReplyDeleteArabella - You've lost me (not even google can help). Have I done something illegal?
Kaz - Yes!
Early Alzheimer's Club!
ReplyDeleteI'll try and pay attention in future.
Gah, I'm so rubbish at these, I find them even harder than cryptic crosswords.
ReplyDeleteAfter a year of doing the ones in the London Lite it becomes second nature.
ReplyDeleteOoohh I've got the last one!!!
ReplyDeleteNo 12 Tony Visconti
Yes!
ReplyDeleteOf course David Cameron can be either "Con", "con", or another word that almost sounds right.
What is this?? Summer School!!!
ReplyDeletePlease can you just publish another picture of Paul Weller looking cute or something? I am rubbish at these.
Wasn't that bloke in number three with the hairnet in Sigue Sigue Sputnik, Geoffster?
ReplyDeleteFeck me, they were shite.
There's a clip you may find amusing on mine - you've probably seen it already though.
See you got Freddie off us - you'll get a season of very committed 75 minutes for your 70 grand a week, I'm sure...
L.U.V. on ya,
Bob
Beth - Sorry. Normal service will be resumed soon.
ReplyDeleteBob - That bloke's got more in the net than Freddie will. It's good to have some good-lookers in the side, though. It wasn't so long ago we had Iain Dowie.
