6. Gloucester ?
Correct. Gloss, stir.  I thought that was one of the hardest to guess as I was using a slang term for a prison. In which case, I was sadly mistaken in thinking that 6 was Albany Prison.  |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

No station near it though and that three letter NLC▸ can't be right. ALB is Albrighton. Total coincidence that the picture of the tin of gloss paint was of the 'Albany' brand. |

Correct. (George) Lazenby, and, (James T.) Kirk, Oswald (Mosley). I'm quite proud of that one! |

Yes, that was a good one, bignosemac: I worked back from Oswald Mosley to get that answer, so to speak.  |

7 ... Hint: It's another character played by David McCallum.
Well, that leaves a fairly wide field of possibilities ...  See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_McCallum  |

Full marks to BNM for coming up with something delicously different in the quiz stakes. One of his best I think, if the groans, (when you found out the answer) were anything to go by ! Almost drowned out the station announcements at Temple Meads !

Correct! Taunton. But.... naughty Tufty, having another go before the 24 hours were up. Never mind. Just be careful when the ice cream van comes. That just leaves no. 7 to answer. I'll open up the floor for anyone to answer it. |
