All the answers have a Christmas connection....

22. Carol King (not Lesley Caroll, sorry, she's an actress)

23. Snowball (and the Simpsons' dog is Santa's Little Helper!)

We just need answers to 17, 21 and 24, and I'm not sure of my answer to 9 - could it be Joseph & his Amazing etc?

17. Cribbage

Thanks, FannyCornforth, I wasn’t certain about that one.

Yes, I think “Joseph” predates “JC, Superstar”, although the former was originally written as a 20 minute cantata to be performed in schools!

21. Pret a manger?

FannyCornforth Thu 24-Dec-20 06:32:28

Ashcombe yes, thank you, that makes sense about Joseph
Goodbyetoallthat - well done! That one's quite clever! (I'd never thought of the origins of the word 'manger').

Is there one left?

24. The video game that Mario first appeared in.

I refuse to Google!

24. Is Donkey King (?) I think - vaguely remember my brother playing it in the 80’s - so my recollection might be a bit wonky but it’s Donkey something ?

Donkey Kong smile

Well done Summerlove (and Lolo). All done and dusted!
