  1. Yes. I added Johnny English. He was also every single generation's "Blackadder" all through history, Inspector Jules Maigret (my Mrs likes him in that serious role, he was pretty good in it), Zasu in "Disney's the Lion King" (animated), the main Dr Who in the spoof "Curse of Fatal Death", and so on. Emile Mondavarius was in the first live Scooby Doo movie, and Dexter Hayman was that weiner from "Hot Shots Part Deux".
  2. I've heard similar things, so it was recognizable for me, one way or another.
  3. That's why I suggested I was being thrown out for saying that. "Don't bother, I'll let myself out." Although it is technically true that Topo Gigio did do a group song once on the Ed Sullivan Show, calling it rock and roll round be wildly inaccurate. If you want to see The Ed Sullivan Show, there's a free channel for it available on both Plex AND Pluto TV, both of which are free online television sources.

  5. Normally yes. Once he introduced a bunch of family, something like a dozen performers, and they did a song and dance.
  6. I thought of "Rockwell" because his one hit was a hit mostly due to the chorus being sung by Michael Jackson. I had no idea that Sting did the "I want my, I want my, I want my MTV" but I can hear it now that I'm listening for it. I know Dire Straits had albums before "Brothers in Arms" but I tend to underestimate how long it was between "Dire Straits" and that album. I keep thinking of "Making Movies" as a successful album because I liked it.
  7. *looks it up* Sorry, haven't heard this song. Kinda sorta before my time.
  8. "Scooby dooby doo..." -Frank Sinatra. You are correct!
  9. No, but you're a lot closer than you were (AFAIK, this actor has never worked with John Cleese, although I may be wrong.)
  10. I'm sorry. I get busy too. It IS "FIddler on the Roof."
  11. "We'll be staying with Uncle Abram!!!!!!!" "Yes, Mama!" "'We'll be staying with Uncle Abram', 'We'll be staying with Uncle Abram', the whole world has to know our business!!!!" " As Abraham said, "I am a stranger in a strange land...”" "Moses said that." "Ah. Well, as King David said, "I am slow of speech, and slow of tongue."" "That was also Moses." "For a man who was slow of tongue, he talked a lot." "How is your brother-in-law? In America?" "Oh, he's doing very well." "Oh, he wrote you?" "No, not lately." "Then how do you know?" "If he was doing badly, he would write." "You made many many poor people, I realize of course it's no shame to be poor, but it's no great honor either. Now what would be so terrible if I had a small fortune?"
  12. Still lost here. "ROCKWELL?" Some of the clues make me think of "Handle With Care" by the Traveling Wilburys, but the other hints don't correspond.
  13. This keeps reminding me of a Gin Blossoms song, but this can't be that song....
  14. Prince Edmund, Duke of Edinburgh Lord Edmund Blackadder Edmund Blackadder Esq Jules Maigret Nigel Small-Fawcett Enrico Pollini Bernard Fripp Dexter Hayman Father Gerald Emile Mondavarious Rufus Reverend Walter Goodfellow Father Julius Inspector Raymond Fowler The Archbishop of Canterbury "the Doctor" (Doctor Who) Mr Stringer Father Gerald Zasu Mr James Trevor Bingley Centurion Blaccadius King Edmund III Martin Bashir I'm down to 2 more roles, both should be giveaways.
  15. The name of this cartoon/title character came from Frank Sinatra's scatting at the end of a song, once all the words were sung.
  16. No. Scratch off EVERYONE who normally would be thought of with that list. What do you have left? Parodies count-provided the character name is identical.
