Here's some more photographs of fancy tricks to get your kicks at 8.36 on a Saturday morning.

Who are these people and how might their songs be connected?


15. Samuel, Gordon, Kate.

14. Goes with Harvey and Ziggy’s son.

13. My hearing’s getting worse – I think he’s on Prime.

12. Sportsman Vivian comes a cropper.

11. Seveny dwarves not pictured.

10. I bet they all feel The Mark of a Man these days.

9. Quattro di Corleone.

8. Sultans Wipe Shakespeare’s… erm, you can guess the rest.

7. Moolah, Scratch, Wonga.

6. Interior: nine pm… it’s all confused.

5. ¾ ft + 88/44 lines.

4. Robert, a Citizen, on his way to the Palace.

3. He’s Wilder about a hussy.

2. Concentrate.

1. Lana and Kathleen join a creepy family.

 Don't go to Chelsea for the answers - they'll be right here tomorrow morning!

  3. 1 is presumably something to do with a Turner but I don't know what.

    1. Yes! Well done that Walter! Tina Turner and Bryan Adams did a duet called "Its Only Love". So I think C is on the right lines.

    2. Those photos look too recent for Tina and Bryan?

    3. I think they're old photos that have been digitally updated.

  4. Is it to do with Valentines? Roses, hearts, kiss etc.

    1. Its a possibility. Mr Costello in the photo did a version of My Funny Valentine as the B-side of 'Oliver's Army'. But if it is why is Rol doing it a week late? To avoid being too obvious last week?

  5. Paradise seems a bit obvs. Is it fish?

    1. If #1 is Bryan Adams and Tina Turner then the only song they ever recorded together was "Its Only Love" so the clue must be in there somewhere.

      Are they all being somewhat dismissive of someone's romantic intentions (e.g. Baby I Don't Care)?

    2. No. But that's another good song guess

  7. Is it songs about "You" - I Want You Back, Lovin' You, How Was It For You, Stuck On U...

    1. No... although a couple of those songs might be correct, along with one already mentioned.

      Delete
  8. Is it songs about wasting someone's time - not being able to move on because you're still stuck on someone?

    1. Nope. A bit of lateral thinking may be required today.

      Delete
    2. I'll need some fresh air and more coffee in that case. Will come back later and see if anyone has cracked it.

      But before I go, anything to do with punctuation (more specifically, correct and incorrect use of apostrophes)?

      Delete
  9. Don't think this is lateral thinking at all but is it songs about pretending you don't care about a break up whereas you really do?

    1. Another Saturday, another brunch date. Like Ernie I'm going to have to head off but will come back later to see how we got on.

      Delete
  10. This is really baffling! Especially as I think Bryan Adams & Tina Turner only recorded one song, "It's Only Love", so there must be clue in there somewhere, but it's such a generic title. Lateral thinking cap donned!
