As requested, I'm lumping all the clues together.


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


2) This is definitely not a case of 'out of sight, out of mind!'


3) He wanted to paint the town red.


New clue:


Could his tipple have been a 'shot' of vodka?

Well done edw.


Vasily Zaytsev.


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


Novel = War Of The Rats by David L. Robbins

Movie = Enemy At The Gates


2) This is definitely not a case of 'out of sight, out of mind!'


During the famous sniper battle in the book & movie, the German was never in his sight but always on his mind.


3) He wanted to paint the town red.


He was part of The Red Army at Stalingrad


4) Could his tipple have been a 'shot' of vodka?


It probably was! Considering he was a Russian sniper.



Over to you.

    • I do worry English people are focusing on “the flag” and their own wistful nostalgia (how very English) rather than what’s happening with the flag in 2025 stop analysing it as the mere national flag and have a look at it for what it is - the useful tool of intimidation by some extremely dodgy people (see also the Irish tricolour when the IRA were active) defeat the problem, then you can reclaim the flag  pretending there is no problem whilst saying “it’s just a flag” is just…. Sigh

    • If the product states that it's not suitable for anyone under the age of 18 on the package, were you not given a warning by the brand itself? Why would any advice provided by H&B assistants override that?
