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! :)

    • I hate cooking and I can't cook. I live on stuff out of the freezer which I cook once every six months. I exaggerate only slightly.
    • Simply, give us a snap election now as the last 12 months in office honestly have not been great in any sense. Let someone else have a go at turning around UK plc before it's too late. At least the last administration had the inflation and unemployment rates going in the right direction at the END. 
    • Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse. 
    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.
