H&J - 1, 11 and 14 all correct for 3 pts. Rhino Neale not the answer for the 'thinking woman' - they fell at Ryan's feet without too much thinking !
Stormin' - 6 Italy is correct, but for 20 you have to find a heart-throb of many films around the early 80's. Margo has a photo of him wearing next to nothing inside her wardrobe, but I poke fun at him, saying he has a gay moustache. ;)

Mick enters the fray..............
4. David Niven. Going to give it. My book says Niven was Fleming's own recommendation, but the part was seriously offered to Roger Moore - who at the time was filming The Saint and thus turned it down. He played the part later of course. And niven got to play "the original Sir James Bond" in the Bond spoof film Casino Royale.
7. Dirk Bogard (A Postillion struck by Lightning & Snakes and Ladders) Good answer. 4pts as you've given everything. 8. Correct, 1pt 12. Correct, 1pt, 0.5 bonus for year. 13. Correct, 1.5 with bonus 15. incorrect 20. incorrect 9. a) wrong choice of two ! It was $4 million, he was later paid $5.8 for Rain Man. Mick scores 9pts
