Jan. 13th, 2009 10:31 amQ11: Who or what:
i: had instinct?
ii: reds started as Villa?
iii: uniquely, got three in whose match?
iv: claimed continuing labial adhesiveness?
v: was formerly William and succeeded Louis?
vi: in repetitive utterances, anticipated Glyn Daniel et al?
vii: described a small arm accident on 17/6/15?
viii: was executed at Bolton after Worcester?
ix: was targeted by Nat and Dermot?
x: was presumptuous?
the rules as they have evolved:
a: nice full answers and anecdotes if poss
b: say if googled or no; leave time for non-googlers to play
c: obviously look ahead at future questions if you want
d: don't bring in confirming or dissenting answers from other fora until next set is up and running
spoilers no clue here tho i assume --given i and x, which are otherwise a bit broad -- that it's one that comes all at once when you get the theme
