Look for Longer game

[Otta]

Having fun with this. You have to find the names of 75 tube / DLR / overground stations. I'm (with quite a bit of help from the wife) on 38 so far.

I did this a few months ago .... it kept me occupied for days! I was stuck on the guy with the TV and finally resorted to google - the answers have been posted so don't look if you want to complete it!

It's very clever - I wish whoever did it would do some more.

[Wilhelm]

Nice one Otta. Just slightly addictive!

[Otta]

I'm on 44 now, and yes, the tv dude is bugging ne!

[GSJ57]

Without giving anything away ...it's a little more cryptic that the others.

[Otta]

Just hit 50 (out of 75), but at the point where I am having to actually look at the tube map for inspiration.

The wife wondered if he was a thief, which led me to chancer - chancery lane, but that isn't it.

[Wilhelm]

Just got the tv guy. Think laterally.

[GSJ57]

I'll pm it to you if you want!

[Otta]

Not yet, but I may have to conceed eventually.

How to waste an hour! 46 so far, starting to get pissed off.

[Burbage]

Got em! For all the good it's done me. "The competition is now closed" it says, so that's another afternoon wasted.

There are only two, I think, that require any previous knowledge/guessing - the rest are more-or-less straightforward word games - and they can all be done without any research, though access to an up-to-date tube map would be helpful. In case you're wondering, none of the answers are repeated.

[Otta]

I stopped at 60. Will look with fresh eyes tomorrow.

[Otta]

69/75, and I really think I may be beat.

I should be missing Six, but I seem to be missing seven.

1. Bastard with the telly

2. Man shooting on the roof

3. Man watering the little tree

4. the fish

5. The glue

6. The mouse with the cheese

7. The dog with the green eye patch

DON'T TELL ME THE ANSWERS YET!

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Imagine the man was watering two little trees.

[Otta]

I got that one by just trying things with water in the name.

[Pickle]

We are stuck on:

1. Rat with cheese

2. Glue

3. Fish

4. Burning outline

5. Man with tv

6. Man with fun

7. Three pots of gold(?) near the Nuns

[Pickle]

Haha, got the glue!

[Otta]

Those aren't pots of gold, they are cooking tools.

I'm just needing

1. fish

2. glue

3. mouse/rat with cheese

4. gunman on the roof.

With the tv dude forget about the bloke.

[Pickle]

Aah, got it, cheers.

Same as you left now, apart from the glue - think of other words for glue/stick

[Otta]

Yep, just 3 to go. Although that would make 76 not 75 which is odd.

[bon3yard]

HOW IS THE RABBIT IN THE HOLE NOT WARREN STREET !!!!!!!!

[Pickle]

Right, now just fish and rat left. Clues anyone?

[bon3yard]

The fish may not be all it appears to be
