I don't suppose the Hollywood couple is Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward...

Our server was down all last night so couldn't post - didn't know what to do with myself! Ended up clearing out my email Inbox hoping it would get fixed so I could go onto Mumsnet, very sad! Definitely addicted.
Is anyone going to guess 14 before I post the answers?

Earldom? Old mare??

janh · 26/07/2002 11:24

soothepoo, you clever thing! I spent ages with the letters in a circle but only tried combinations that began with a consonant. (None of them made words. Funny, that!)

Fionn · 26/07/2002 18:43

1 Gold Coast
2 Birdwatching
3 Humerus
4 Dime bar
5 Blackmore
6 Deeply Dippy
7 S Sarandon and T Robbins
8 Annette Crosbie
9 Gunpowder Plot
