Where the answer is a person's name, I am looking for a FULL NAME. Answers which only give a surname will only receive half a point.

Can you name the leader and also name the country which they were/are leader of (half a point for each)?

I think I should get 9. I managed to get a last name but not a first name for one of them.

You're assuming it's out of 10. What if it's out of 15?

Spent ages looking at number 10 and just couldn't remember who he was - just sent it in and guessed a random country for the sake of it. I have a sneaking suspicion that I really should know him, though. The rest were pretty straight forward, I thought (dunno about the spelling to be fair), though it did take me a couple of minutes to figure out number 5 - don't know why. I 'll probably think the same about number 10 when I find out who he is/was.

No idea about 5, reasonable guess at 6, probably terrible guess at 10.

I'm too much of a technology retard to even check if I got them right.

7 that I was confident with, 2 guesses and the last one stumped me. I definitely recognise him and will probably kick myself when I see the answer. Good round to kick off with.

Done. I can't believe I didn't know 3 :ph34r: I'm guessing my guess for 10 was wrong also but the only woman politician I know has proved to be correct.

Please, no movie rounds <_<

Twas what I expected. Disappointed that I didn't get Honecker's first name, it was an "Ah, of course" moment when I found it out. Still, can't complain. I'm fucking awful at numbers though so I'm not looking forward to the next round.
