Following the appearance by Doctor Jones ("the dog was called Indiana") on yesterday's Snapshots, I thought it would be nice to lead today with a woman who could always drink him under the table: Marion Ravenwood, aka Karen Allen. She was pretty good at dealing with Starmen too.
Here are this week's answers...
10. The first book of "Oy! I was watching that!"
The first book was Genesis.
Genesis - Turn It On Again
I'm not sure I can get behind the current yoof attempt to rehabilitate Collins, but Turn It On Again is still a cracking tune.
9. Smug tribes with Spanish heart.
Smug tribes is an anagram.
Corazón is Spanish for heart.
Tim Burgess - Oh My Corazón
8. Fictional world - anagram rejected on grounds of taste & decency.
I could not bring myself to come up with an anagram for Bucks Fizz.
Before you accuse me of scraping the barrel, Bucks Fizz will always have a special place in my heart as the band that encouraged my sexual awakening. This track is just pure cheese though...
Bucks Fizz - The Land of Make Believe
7. High ranking Smurf priest seeks release.
Father Abraham becomes a Colonel.
Colonel Abrams - Trapped
6. Bird & Davies choose their favourite ice cream dessert.
Dickie Bird & Dickie Davies, sports fans!
The Dickies - Banana Splits
5. If you knew she married Bruce, it'd set your temperature soaring.
If you knew Peggy Sue... got married... to Bruce Lee... it'd give you a fever.
Peggy Lee - Fever
4. Powerful sweets, back to front.
The Mighty Lemon Drops - Inside Out
3. Like Williams with a Bad Attitude, lost on a mad stream.
Robbie Williams meets B.A. Robertson...
Robbie Robertson - Somewhere Down The Crazy River
2. Paltry cuts ban central haulage.
Paltry cuts = Petty Nicks.
The centre is the heart. Haulage is dragging things around.
Tom Petty & Stevie Nicks - Stop Dragging My Heart Around
1. Walking the dog on Lakeland Fells makes you realise what a beautiful planet this is.
Rufus Thomas went Walking The Dog.
Alfred Wainwright wrote lots of books about walking in the Lake District.
More next week.
One of my better weeks for a change
