I'll have you know I spent a whole 30 seconds or so looking up "births in 1950 and 1951" on Wiki in research for this game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sean 6,337 Posted September 7, 2018 Another disclaimer.If the Queen outlived all 50 picks put forward by the four players each player will have to submit another list of 50 names born on or before 20th January 1936.Again the winner would be determined by the highest number of surviving picks upon QE2s death.In the event of a draw it would again go to sudden death until a winner is found who has the highest number of survivors.Highly unlikely scenario but you never know.

I mean, I'm clearly biased given he's Ian, but... ignoring Who, he was also a leading TV actor of the 50s (Sir Lancelot, Nicholas Nickleby) and an RSC actor for 30 odd years (including the lead in Hamlet more than once), plus The Great Escape, Superman, The Man Who Never Was, Above Us the Waves, Blackadder, Corrie, etc etc. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
