Not bad for a first try! Of the ones you said you have 2 wrong

Oh that's annoying - I'd got this puzzle (well, obviously not this puzzle!) lined up for a future issue.
(I can never, ever do these. I have enough trouble identifying people from their whole faces!)

I'm terrible at putting names to faces, even when I know I recognise the faces. I have different for 11 and 13 from Bunny. Well I have differnt for 11 and don't think your answer for 13 is in the right category.

11 is correct.
13 is not the number for that answer (well I know what I mean)

I should read more carefully
27 and 36 are wrong - so that makes 3 wrong really

I thought 11 wasPrince charles.

He is not that answer

OOps, I meant Steve Redgrave for 15 (just put him in the wrong place).

I was not at all convinced with my Fiona Bruce answer - she's got scary Klingon eyebrows. I'm now wondering if 36 is Tom Baker... and is 38 Harry Hill?

PS Scurra - just because this has been here doesn't mean you can't use it again - surely you would have different people?

You mistook Tom Baker for Fiona Bruce?

Errr.... now you're trying to confuse me!! (Easy to do!)

Wondering if 16 might be Sting...and are 27 Kate Middleton and 44 Prince Harry? 30 is driving me nuts. I KNOW I've seen those eyes somewhere!!

EDIT

Aah, is 41 Elton John?

Right then - my two guesses would be
8. Patricia Hodge?
43. Mary Berry?????

Just goes to show what I watch on telly!!!!

Ah, yes, they look promising!!

34 Victoria Pembleton?
39 Prince Charles?

Ah, D just got 16. and 30. Bryn Terfel/ Michele Obama
