And since @Ladywillpower correctly guessed @FintyTin's last clue, this is @Ladywillpower**'s latest clue:

This old German name opened Pandora's box in 1929. Her royal connections meant that she waltzed off to one of the Channel Islands with the Doctor.

@Clettercletterthatsbetter has guessed Clara!

Felicity? Name from felicitas ("luck"), Felicity Kendall in the Good Life was married to Tom (Jerry, the mouse, was the neighbour), Felicity the 90s TV show, can't get the scientist clue though!

Yes! Well done finallychangedmyusername.
In the 2014 film The Theory of Everything Felicty Jones played the wife of the scientist Stephen Hawking.
Over to you.

Excellent @Ladywillpower!

Right, my last few clues have been guessed very quickly so I'm hoping the following is a little trickier:

This guy helped give life to the caped crusader - elsewhere in this industry his sidekick is all relative. Musically he's award-winning (yet operates under an alias) and another, along with his chums, expects the princess to be polite.

Another clue:

The flames were lit, but not by this bloke and his gang, AKA William to some.

This really is a tricky one.
Bill/Billy?

@Ladywillpower- it's not Billy, but the name Billy will help you greatly in getting the correct name!

Joel?

Yep, you got it, Joel!

Joel Schumacher directed Batman movies, Joel Coen - along with his brother Ethan - form the Coen Brothers as film directors. Joel Zimmerman is the DJ behind deadmau5 and Joel Madden is the lead singer with Good Charlotte.

Extra clue: Billy Joel "didn't start the fire".

Here's the baton!

Here goes!
I could be an Essex boy, a journalist or possibly a Celtic rugby player.

Gethin?

Joey? aha

Not Gethin or Joey.
The Essex boy is about to be reunited with his Welsh girl!

Ooh, Gavin?

Yes finallychangedmyusername.
The Essex boy is Gavin from Gavin & Stacey (looking forward to the Christmas special when they will be "reunited")
The journalist is Gavin Estler.
The Celtic rugby players are Gavin Henson (Wales) & Gavin Hastings (Scotland). There are probably more!

Work and the children have defeated me today, so this may be terrible, I apologise...

This one's a French girl, then a recreational drug and finally is over the top when short.

US TV (90s/00s) gave us at least two, one male and one female: a comedy doctor and comedy father-of-two.

Properly wracking my brains here!

One of these people assisted with making a very long distance call.

My first sentence describes the name, each syllable at a time....

Elliot(t)?

That must be it. And I'm now really cross with myself as I thought of Elliot (scrubs) but couldn't put together the rest of the puzzle. Well done abs great clues!

You got it, Elliot/Elliott!

French girl = "Elle
Recreational drug= "ee"
Over the top= "OTT"

Elliot the female doctor in Scrubs, correct, plus Elliot Gould played Ross and Monica's dad in Friends.

And Elliott helped E.T. "phone home"

I got it from the phone clue ;)

Next name:

Shepherdess or queen.

Amanda?

No.

The queen is medieval.

Time for another clue:

The lion's heart, or perhaps the lion's beard?
