msc 18,479 Posted November 30, 2018 The state of play - along with the folk are. Actually on the most I'm quite impressed by the relative fame of the pick so far... 1.

Spade – Naka Drotske – 1995 Rugby World Cup winner 6. Gcreptile – Jean-Louis Trintignant – Big name French actor 7. YWillz – Andrew Fairlie – one of the most renowned chefs in Scotland 8. Chorizo – Simon Ricketts – former Guardian journo 9. Biblio – Dame Vera Lynn – you know who she is 10. Sir Creep – Patti Goyette – Olive Oil co owner (and who doesn’t like olive oil?) 11. Toast – Nobby Stiles – 1966 and all that… 12. Drol – Syed Ashraful Islam – Asian politician on my fecking shortlist 13. Grim – Josephine Mandamin – a water walker, apparently. 14. Yorkshire Banker – Anne Baker – Author, War Girls (She’s still alive??) 15. Book – Kane Tanaka – oldest person 16. Great Uncle Bulgaria – Leslie Philips – possibly a Womble 17. DI – Herman Wouk – famous but dry author 18. Markb4 – Tim Conway – American comic 19. Theoldlady – Stanley Baxter – veteran TV star 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
