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 recall chandelier not wanting a review on this forum good or bad  
    • Echoed, your efforts are much appreciated, thank you.
    • Thanks penguin  always wondered about that place and that’s way more info than I ever thought I would get  (used to live above a gun nut on friern road - he would tell me nothing)
    • There was a Saturday afternoon crowd of enthusiasts, and at other times the owner might have been off acquiring stock. He also repaired air guns, which he also sold. He stocked edged weapons, uniforms, including antique uniforms, air guns and ammo and starting pistols and shot. Some medals and other militaria. Quite a lot of ex service chit chat on a Saturday. I had an amateur interest, didn't deal a lot, in English pattern swords and other mainly 19th century militaria. And made some good purchases there. I'm afraid WWII and later events was the major focus of most of the regulars.
