Just a bit of (non-seasonal) amusement in the run-up to Xmas.
Finding new "themes" for the weekly family quiz night on Skype gets harder and harder. In desperation I came up with some "Famous Names in Pictures" - pop stars, performers and personalities. You might want to try them out in an idle moment. Shouldn't give you too much trouble, although I do entertain the small, malicious hope that some of the "differently intelligent" members of our little community may endure a few moments of mental lockdown - especially if their earnest efforts to keep up with the music scene have only got as far as
That's right. Fats Domino. You've got the idea. Now carry on . . .

Hmm, that fits pretty well into the "differently intelligent" category. Welcome aboard.

I did learn a bit more thanks to you and the ones who answered.
