Steward's on an earlier entry: if you hadn't heard of a character, yet guessed it correctly, surely Google or similar has been brought into play. Is this not cheating?


Also, what womanofdulwich did in her last clue entry was v. helpful, ie, lumping all clues together meant one didn't have to search back.


Also, can we have an easypeasy clue so I don't feel so stupid?

Peckhamgatecrasher,


You are obviously referring to a previous comment of mine.


Yes, I did go on-line to find out what other series Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock) had appeared in, which led me to the correct answer.


I think you will find that most people use the internet to find out certain info, but you still have to know what to google after working out the sometimes cryptic clues first, so it's hardly cheating!


Anyway, back to my first clue:


A real person portrayed in a novel and on the big screen.

Actually AM I always put people's initials in upper case, lower case always seems incorrect to me.


In future when addressing the other AM I'll use AMO, it's Latin for 'I love' you know.


Hope that's alright with all concerned.

I love you too HB,


But for future reference,


I'm happy to answer to Aq or Aqm.


Really don't want to step on the original AM's toes! :)
