I know 6 of these. The rest I have absolutely no idea.

EDIT: Having just checked, I got 7/10. Got the one Swampy didn't know as well, result. :)

7 (I think) for me. No idea of 2 of them, and I'm annoyed I got the other one wrong.

It's one of those ones where the second you look it up you go "ah, of course" rather than "who?"

Pretty confident with 8/10. Absolutely no idea about 6 and 10. Can't even hazard a guess.

The deadline is Monday, I think you'll just about squeeze in before that if you send it at 11.

Got 1, 2, 4, 7 and 9 for sure. Could only muster a guess for 3, the rest I left blank. My guess was wrong though.

And that was not a good start, losing the Doctor at this stage of the game is pretty catastrophic, the Mafia will be creaming themselves after that kill. Particularly when the Doctor is as skilful a player as Forehead is.

Think I have 8, no idea with 10.
It's getting kind of hard to believe things are going to get better. I've been drowning too long to believe that the tide is going to turn. And I've been living too hard to believe things are going to get easier now. I'm still trying to shake off the pain from the lessons I've learned. And if I see Van Helsing, I swear to the lord I will slay him. AHA HA HA. He take you from me but I swear I won't let it be so. AHA HA HA. Blood, will run done his face, when he is decapitated AH! His head on my mantle is how I will let this world know...how much I love you.

I could look at number 3 all day, the smouldering piece of ass.

I think i got number 10 correct but it took a bit of dredging up. Somtimes age has its benifits..

Only got 4 so far off the top of my head but 6 was one of them so it's not totally shameful. Posted Image

Just spotted another two which were staring at me.

I hope everyone guesses Skyline Drifter correctly. I have seven. I don't know three. Didn't bother guessing.

Nice quiz, pitched at a good level - not too easy and not too hard. I think I got 7. No idea who no. 5 is.

I posted this quiz when I was in uni today, and have been busy tonight, so this has been my first chance to get on P&B since.

I have 27 PMs already!
