Dunno what the first pic is of, but the second is Ann Bolyn. Pass on this one for now.

Well done, Mr T... keep going:)!

[Aktungbby]

Dunno what the first pic is of, but the second is Ann Bolyn. Pass on this one for now.

That is in some dispute actually; I thought it was Anne too: But the Boleyn sisters tended to wear 'B" pendant jewelry ....Her portraits (many) were destroyed after her judicial murder. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/0e/Anneboleyn2.jpg/220px-Anneboleyn2.jpg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Anneboleyn2.jpg) http://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/feb/16/anne-boleyn-portrait-found-using-facial-recognition-software (http://www.theguardian.com/science/2015/feb/16/anne-boleyn-portrait-found-using-facial-recognition-software) the only undisputed image>http://i.guim.co.uk/static/w-620/h--/q-95/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2015/2/15/1424022362943/11f6eab0-15b5-4d12-9d2b-6fa3f5973716-620x372.jpegalso thought to be H VIII's next wife Jane Seymour: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/11414222/Portraits-of-Anne-Boleyn-may-not-be-her-say-experts.html (http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/11414222/Portraits-of-Anne-Boleyn-may-not-be-her-say-experts.html)https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Hans_Holbein_the_Younger_-_Jane_Seymour%2C_Queen_of_England_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg/220px-Hans_Holbein_the_Younger_-_Jane_Seymour%2C_Queen_of_England_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hans_Holbein_the_Younger_-_Jane_Seymour,_Queen_of_England_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg):hmmm:http://i.imgur.com/2FvXnkQ.jpg Sailors See More?:woot:

[Eichhörnchen]

PS: and the answer is not "Sailors See More", so you're out for a duck, Aktung...

[Aktungbby]

MANHATTAN!:D

[Eichhörnchen]

Good answer, but not the right one.

[Jeff-Groves]

Mary Boleyn?

[Eichhörnchen]

I was beginning to think this thread was another with the Eichhörnchen Kiss Of Death on it. No, and there's NOTHING gay about the real answer, either:haha:

[Jeff-Groves]

Prince William?

[Jeff-Groves]

1812 reenactors trying to date Mary Ann?

[Jeff-Groves]

This thread is to slow for me to play any longer.

[Eichhörnchen]

Think of slang names for sailors in the Wooden Walls' times...

[Catfish]

Sealords? Swashbuckler? I have no idea.

"Manhattan" was good though :D:up:

[Eichhörnchen]

OK, if I say the word "Jolly" does that help (apart from giving it to you on a plate, that is)?:wah:

[Harvs]

Jolly ann?

[Eichhörnchen]

Nope. I'll leave it a bit longer in case someone presently snoozing wakes up later and gets that clue...

[Aktungbby]

Limeys, tars ....nuthin klickin' here :doh: Is the sailor photo from inside the Tower?

[Eichhörnchen]

You've got the first answer to the puzzle in there. Now if you can only put the two words already guessed by you and Tango together and spell it out (remember the other clue about being very not-gay: it is a person, which is another clue for you).

I'm a bit stumped by the bloke in picture 3. Did I see him in another thread in GT's recently?

Edit: Belay that... I just got the answer poking around elsewhere...

[Aktungbby]

Don't look back! Just go for the light!:D

[Jimbuna]

Both way off the mark but as a clue the first word is literally as posted....I

[Aktungbby]

I look back to see you're still going for glory!:03:

[Jimbuna]

Quite surprised nobody has got it yet, only one of the pictures could be misleading I thought.

One of the pictures is a season.

Well it's the name of a song or album (or both) by Louis Armstrong, but just having trawled through dozens I've drawn a blank.

http://i.imgur.com/VilXmnv.jpg "Sugar-Plum Convoy" by Louis Armstrong? Or maybe "Sweet Apricot Van"?

[Eichhörnchen]

Nice thought: there is something of a lilac tinge to this post, but that's just a pleasing coincidence:)

[Eichhörnchen]

Now this has slipped down onto page 2, it's time for a clue: This was a product of early Hollywood.

[Harvs]

A film title?

[Eichhörnchen]

No, but you got one of the words in there:timeout:

[Harvs]

And that would be?

[Eichhörnchen]

[Harvs]

[Eichhörnchen]

Why don't I just tell you the answer then, like I did Aktung??

I'll maybe change one of the pictures to show the same place, but make it easier to recognise...?

Monochrome colour?

[Eichhörnchen]

You're so nearly there, mate, I have to give it to you: "Monochrome Film" was what I was after. Good deduction, Harvs!:up: But then you did actually get the word film earlier, didn't you?

[Harvs]

Forgot about the word i got right :haha:

[Eichhörnchen]

I thought I'd given that thread the "Eichhörnchen Kiss Of Death" for a while there: see if you can kill it off instead.:haha:

Clue, its a book.

[Aktungbby]

is it a book about business?

[Moonlight]

Business is involved but its not the main aspect of the book.

[Aktungbby]

anything to do with fig newtons?

[Moonlight]

Its got nothing to do with anything you eat.:D

[Eichhörnchen]

Is it a novel?

[Moonlight]

Clue, its a book.

Is it a novel?

Have you been on the squirrel juice again. :D

[Eichhörnchen]

So it's non-fiction showbiz?

[Moonlight]

No.
Its historical fiction set in the early 20th century.

[Eichhörnchen]

So it's a novel, you bugger?

[Moonlight]

:yep:
An extra couple of clues just for you Mr Squirrel, the author is a male and is very very famous.

[Aktungbby]

AMERICAN AUTHOR?

[Eichhörnchen]

Is the author Hemingway?

anything to do with fig newtons?

And you think I'VE been at the squirrel juice...

[Moonlight]

AMERICAN AUTHOR?
Yes
Is the author Hemingway?
No

[Aktungbby]

Sinclair Lewis or F. Scott Fitzgerald?

Pillow Talk?

Pillow Talk?
That's the 3rd part of the image clue guessed but it needs working on a bit more to get the correct answer to it.
No one has had a go at image 1 and 2 yet.:hmph:

[Moonlight]

Sinclair Lewis or F. Scott Fitzgerald?
Missed this post, that's a No Aktungbby. :D

[Aktungbby]

does the novel take place in the mythical town of Altamont, Catawba?

[Moonlight]

No, here's another clue for you, its not about a town or city, its about a movement that takes place all over America.

[Aktungbby]

:DNOT PROHIBITION!

[Moonlight]

Its not prohibition.
Here's another clue for you, a former President of one disappeared under mysterious circumstances and was never seen again.

[Jimbuna]

I guess that would be Jimmy Hoffa?

[Moonlight]

That's right, its about the rise of the labour union movement, all you need to do now is give me the name of the book.:)

[Jimbuna]

Way outside my sphere of knowledge I suspect but the author couls have a surname like Maleski?

[Aktungbby]

Confusion: is it about Hoffa or the rise of the unions?

[Moonlight]

Way outside my sphere of knowledge I suspect but the author couls have a surname like Maleski?
No
Confusion: is it about Hoffa or the rise of the unions?
Its not about Hoffa but it is about the labour unions, another clue for you, He wrote over 25 best-selling novels, sold more than 750 million copies in 42 languages and spent over 300 weeks combined on The New York Times best sellers list.
If you don't get it soon I'm giving in and going to live with the sheep in the Falklands. :/\\!!

[Moonlight]

Although I don't quite understand the puzzle, I'll guess Memories of Another Day by Harold Robbins.
Correct.
I think we're going to need a post-mortem inquiry on this...
I'll present the evidence Mr Squirrel and you can be the judge and jury.
The first image.
Barbara Streisand sung a song called Memory, get it, memory, memories?
The second image.

I can't see the connection between Val Kilmer and Dame Kiri Te Kanawa Mr Squirrel so I'll start with something simple, is the films title just one word.

[Aktungbby]

^:DU go Gal! ride BBY ride!

[Eichhörnchen]

Yes, one word

[Aktungbby]

Was there a bomb?

[Moonlight]

I believe Aktungbby has got it, I'll leave it to him to finish it off.

[Eichhörnchen]

You two buggas: both telling me you want to leave it for the other one; it was too easy, wasn't it?

You'll have to do the honours, Moonlight (chairman's ruling) only don't make it as hard as the last one.:haha:

[Eichhörnchen]

That's correct... still pondering your puzzle.

I don't know whether that's a clock or an ornate tea caddy...

[Moonlight]

I think its neither of them Mr Squirrel, me thinks its an ornate salt cellar. :hmmm:
I've no idea what Ben Johnson has to do with this either.:/\\!!

[Aktungbby]

me thinks its an ornate salt cellar.
Jeeze! too easy; with that big hint of mine: should be jif! Whether an album, a poem, a novel, or where you sit at the table tis all the same!:O: And it's so Brit! Especially for the saucy sailors infesting this forum eyeing the wine dark seas from the steel span of their respective mancave bridges!:03:

[Eichhörnchen]

Now do you mean Ben Johnson or Ben Jonson?

[Moonlight]

I think you're right about Ben Jonson Mr Squirrel, the playwright is the one we should be focusing on and not the former athlete.


Our revels now are ended is a line from Shakespeares The Tempest Act 4 Scene 1
PROSPERO
You do look, my son, in a moved sort,
As if you were dismay'd: be cheerful, sir.
Our revels now are ended. These our actors,
As I foretold you, were all spirits and
Are melted into air, into thin air:
And, like the baseless fabric of this vision,
The cloud-capp'd towers, the gorgeous palaces,
The solemn temples, the great globe itself,
Ye all which it inherit, shall dissolve
And, like this insubstantial pageant faded,
Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff
As dreams are made on, and our little life
Is rounded with a sleep. Sir, I am vex'd;
Bear with my weakness; my, brain is troubled:
Be not disturb'd with my infirmity:
If you be pleased, retire into my cell
And there repose: a turn or two I'll walk,
To still my beating mind.


Jonson is generally regarded as the second most important English dramatist, after William Shakespeare, during the reign of James I.

Sir, I am vex'd;
Bear with my weakness; my, brain is troubled:
Be not disturb'd with my infirmity:
Yep that's me as well, I have no idea as yet where Aktungbby is going with this, another clue for the mentally disabled would be much appreciated old bean.

[Eichhörnchen]

I think you're right about Ben Jonson Mr Squirrel, the playwright is the one we should be focusing on and not the former athlete.

Don't forget Marlowe.

That's what I love about this forum anyway... the ease with which we can move from testicles to Pericles.

Both will plague you!:har: Moonlight is the winner! He PM'd me the answer "Below the Salt", Which is a Steeleye Span Album, a stanza from Ben Johnson's Cynthia's Revels and a T. Costain novel, Below the Salt, about the 11th century in England.

[Eichhörnchen]

Has he done a moonlight flit do you think? I'll give him a nudge...

[Moonlight]

So all that Korean kerfuffle is over now is it, a really easy one to get this thread started again, you don't need clues on this one. :D

I don't know!:hmmm:

[Eichhörnchen]

That's no good... tell us when you think you know...

[Moonlight]

Is it a TV serial Mr Squirrel.

[Eichhörnchen]

Nope, it's someone who has been on TV and in films.

[Moonlight]

Is it a male English actor and comedian. ?

[Balcaam]

Gah, I'm so close. I almost want to say..Dick Van Dyke?

[Eichhörnchen]

OK OK you got it. Your turn now...

[Moonlight]

Gah, I'm so close. I almost want to say..Dick Van Dyke?

Bloody hell, I was going to say that, :/\\!! muttter mutter bloody newbies trampling all over this thread mutter mutter.:hmph:

Some of the younger people may not get it so I'll give you a hint. It's a show.

I hope this is up to Par.

[Aktungbby]

Is the show still on?

[Eichhörnchen]

Yeah you're right: he should've said if he knew the answer. What are you like, Moonlight?

Anyway, is it a U.S. show?

(btw, you can make your pics smaller if you copy them into "Paint" first and resize them):)

[Balcaam]

It's an American show and it's been of the air since the 80's. Sorry about the picture size, but It's the smallest I found. I'll do that next time.

[Eichhörnchen]

Bingo!

We have not had this show either, in Germany.
I guess some of those are impossible to find for us :wah:
Grate .. m'kay
Space .. no prob
"coaster" ? :doh:

Don't you use coasters in Deutschland? Maybe you call them "cuppenputten" or something?

[Balcaam]

Is the person a male or female?

[Catfish]

Don't you use coasters in Deutschland? Maybe you call them "cuppenputten" or something?

I have heard of "roller coasters". In the woods around Hannover there is not much civilisation, and cuppenputten is of course bavarian.

We use such things:

Hey you two, some of us get our brainwaves while we're in the shower, you ought to try it sometime, getting a shower I mean. :haha:

[Catfish]

... getting a shower I mean. :haha:

With the torrential rains we have here, who needs a "shower" ?!
Douchebags, Warmduscher! :O:

[Eichhörnchen]

This was a person

[Moonlight]

Is the person a male or female?
Are you going to answer Balcaams question Mr Squirrel?
This was a person
They're dead then yes?

[Eichhörnchen]

Yes, an historical male person of great renown

[Moonlight]

Last question, were they alive before the 19th century.

[Eichhörnchen]

Yes (and you can ask as many questions as you like).

[Moonlight]

Captain James Cook.

[Aktungbby]

I GOT THAT TOO! BUT CAPTAIN COOK WAS SERIOUSLY INTO FRESH VEGGIES TO PREVENT SCURVY SO THE 'SALT PORK' (SPAM ) THROWS ME FOR A LOOP HERE. (on the other hand Cook did get served up at a luau on Kaui'i in place of the customary suckling pig):arrgh!: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/Captain_James_Cook_statue%2C_Waimea%2C_Kauai%2C_Ha waii.JPG/250px-Captain_James_Cook_statue%2C_Waimea%2C_Kauai%2C_Ha waii.JPG (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Captain_James_Cook_statue,_Waimea,_Kauai,_Haw aii.JPG)

I know that butterfly to be a White Admiral; I'll need to contemplate the rest some more (the last one looks like Aktung in a Joni Mitchell wig).

[Catfish]

Admiral John Sugarbear (Sugarhippo?) Young.
No it's not Neil Y.
Hmm.
I guess i'm wrong :88)

[Moonlight]

You're right you've got it wrong, :D some of its right Catfish, can you guess which part. :O:

[Eichhörnchen]

Are the last two words "Baby Blues"?

[Aktungbby]

Was this person possibly an admiral: Companion of the Order of the Bath (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Bath) and given the German Order of the Red Eagle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Red_Eagle), 2nd class, with Crossed Swords for service in the Boxer Rebellion, promoted Ogden cigarettes and rests eternally next to his rival in St Paul's Cathedral?:sunny:

If it is Mr Squirrel the second image is of the Triborough bridge in New York, I've no idea what a salmon sandwich has got to do with a bridge though.:hmmm:

[Aktungbby]

TV SHOW @ Eich: think Brooklynese from the high-middle german

[Eichhörnchen]

Is it a classic show we would've seen in the UK?

[Aktungbby]

I believe it shows on CBS Action in the UK but I'm not overly familiar with TV. The show's star dealt with a lot of vices in his previous signature role. and occasionally engages in cannibalism...in the year 2024.:shucks:

[Eichhörnchen]

I don't have a TV so I'm not up on current shows; I'm not gonna get far with this...

[Catfish]

Should we think soylent green? :O:

[Eichhörnchen]

Is the star Mads Mikkelsen?

[Aktungbby]

Nope! American:rock: (naschen mein kamerad naschen)

[Eichhörnchen]

umm... Michael Chiklis?

[Aktungbby]

Nope; it's the name of the show we're after here.

[Eichhörnchen]

Check. I wanted to know if he's in it. I guess not :)

[Eichhörnchen]

Is it a Cop Show?

[Aktungbby]

Yes! It takes place on the mean streets of San Francisco

[Eichhörnchen]

Nash Bridges! Never heard of it, just detective work!

[Aktungbby]

WINNER! my favorite food of the gods is of course a bagel- with the works: cream-cheese and salmon! In NY speak-terms: "I 'nosh' therefore I am" from the High middle German: naschen; practically a dead giveaway! The Yid pro quo of snacks BBY.

a description of the event

[Eichhörnchen]

This is difficult. Searching through pictures of "great explorers" the only things of note I've been able to find are this photo of the wife of a great explorer explorer (I don't know the lucky man was):

http://i.imgur.com/gL7KTat.jpg



And this photo of Grandpa Munster: http://i.imgur.com/WRIL4YL.jpg?1 (I can't think why he was there)

[Aktungbby]

WHOOPS! I said 'discoverers' not 'explorers'; stay ON track lest U B ASEA:shucks: HINT: one was a godly Englishman; U may toast with a soda water if so inclined; and the other was a Scotsman; any gardiner appreciates his imput...soda speak!:woot:

[Eichhörnchen]

You did indeed. And I wondered whether you meant that, or whether "discoverers" was an Americanism for explorers:03:

Back on the scent now...
