I'm setting myself a new challenge to make the game more interesting.


Will be posting one clue a day, and will try to make my turn last as long as possible.


Todays first clue, already posted.


Next one tomorrow. The clues will get easier as the days go by.


Aiming (would like) to last a week!

I just wanted to see if I could make it last a week, as a kind of experiment!


But, If you are desperate for more clues, I'll forget about it & post another shortly.


And no, not Ian Curtis

I just wanted to see if I could post 7 clues, without losing my turn & it looks like I achieved it!


It's actually really hard to post relevant clues, without giving too much away at once.


So, the final, giveaway clue:


Watch Closely Now


and you will reveal the character!

can't say as I've seen this film I'm afraid


but John Norman Howard from A Star is Born with Kris Kristofferson and Barbara Streisand.


I can't say as I was a milion miles away with some of my thinking, but I was going down the route of real life music stars played by singers.


He was much better in Blade ;)


Bah, tough one.

1) This characters rock solid career went downhill fast!

He started off as a famous, successful rock singer & threw it all away


2) He was on a mission to self-destruct, and ended up killing himself

At the end of the film, he crashed his car ( I cried!!)


3) My character is from the most recent version of this film

There were two other versions before the 1976 one


4) He has a good voice

He was the lead singer in a rock band


5) The person who played him had another career, apart from acting. So did the leading lady

Kris Kristofferson was a singer before he became an actor, so was Barbra Streisand


6) He was in for a bumpy ride, but may have set a track record

His band was called 'The John Norman Howard Speedway' The 'track' record also referred to music!


7) Watch Closely Now and you will reveal the character!

'Watch Closely Now' was the bands theme song & one of the films most famous tracks.



I think I could've kept that one running for another week!


Well done EP. You got there in the end!

    • It’s a 4 year old on a bike do you really think he is going 15mph. Grown adults complaining about a child who probably isn’t able to string a few sentences together says a lot about the people in this forum. If this member was hit from behind the father was probably walking behind the bike so I don’t get the point of stretching out an overreaction from a child in Nursery bumping into you. Grow up Obviously a four year old should be cycling on the pavement.
    • Malumbu,  if none of us were there, does that mean that nobody should post anything on here unless they have witnesses from the EDF? Why would someone post something like this if it  wasn't true? This is not about whether children should or should not be cycling on the pavement. There are specific issues. a) the child was out of sight of the person supposed to be caring for him b) he appears to have been  either not looking where he was going or was out of control of the bike c) if he did see that he was about to hit someone  he apparently did not give them any kind of warning  d)  a person was unexpectedly hit from behind whilst just walking along, which in my view makes him a victim e) does the title of the thread really matter as the issue was described in the first post?  f) nobody is blaming the child, they are blaming the person who should have been watching him g) do you really think it was acceptable for that person to find the situation funny? The OP was not complaining about the 4 year old. They were complaining about an adult's lack of supervision of a 4 year old who was not capable of riding a bike and who hit someone from behind with no warning. Also, apart from reading the OP more carefully, perhaps also choose your words more carefully. Jobless? Lunatic? Charming.
    • Completely jobless and lunatic behaviour coming on a forum and complaining about a 4 year old and the child’s bike riding skills. Honestly grow up
    • I have to say, I too am upset about the passing of DulwichFox. He was a real local character, who unlike me, managed to stick with ED despite all of the nauseous yuppification of the last three decades. R.I.P to foxy    Louisa.
