The Who Am I Game?

[indiepanda]

Mork?

Of Mork and Mindy that is, first appeared in a dream sequence in Happy Days

[Loz]

Oh, nicely done Indiepanda. I was trying to think of a second clue that wouldn't give it away.

[indiepanda]

Ok, let's try this one.

This character started out as a fictional character in a series of books, and then later appeared in a long running TV series, but the only thing the two versions of the character share beyond a name is a job.

[Dopamine1979]

Dr Watson?

[indiepanda]

No. Right genre though.

[red devil]

Inspector Morse/Endeavour?...

[aquarius moon]

Lovejoy?

[indiepanda]

The character is female

[aquarius moon]

Miss Marple?

[indiepanda]

The TV show she is in is current - I.e. still running. And new books are still beng published.

[Otta]

(DCI) Vera Stanhope?

[indiepanda]

Nope. Character is American.

[DulwichFox]

Glynis Barber ... Det. Sgt. Harry Makepeace

[indiepanda]

Nope. The actor who plays her husband in the TV version previously played a vampire.

[Salsaboy]

Buffy?

[indiepanda]

Getting much warmer. You have the right male actor but not the show he is currently in.

[Otta]

Dr. Temperance "Bones" Brennan

[Otta]

Which I'm ashamed to admit I only got because she had to be married to either Angel or Spike from Buffy.

[Albert Fegg]

When they met, was it moider?

Yes!

I read the early books before the TV show appeared and bar the job, everything is different. Very much "inspired by" rather than based on the books.

The character of the young Morse in Endeavour is clearly very related to the older Morse we remember from the TV show with John Thaw.

Bones would not just have to have a complete personality transplant to grow into the book version but lose Booth as a husband, (not just via divorce as she has a totally different ex husbamd in the books) lose Christine as her child, never have been a best selling author, become an alcoholic and had completelu different parents / upbringing.

[Otta]

May have to check that out.

Anyway, I'll be back later with a new clue.

Whilst it is a fantastic tv programme, I just cannot believe that the 'young' Morse will ever grow to become the 'older' Morse in 20/30 years time. The characters just seem completely different.

I thought there were quite a few similarities but perhaps I am being too influenced by superficial things like love of classical music and his intelligence.

[Otta]

Can't think of one right now, someone else dive in if you like.

[indiepanda]

Ok.

This fictional character wanted to be called Cordelia.
