    Really annoying that so many of these are using pictures of actors in roles other than in the question but don't actually tell us who the actor is, or indeed the other way round, like Queen Victoria in Q15, who I doubt that one person in a hundred would have been able to name just from that one picture. I gave up after that one.

    That's the point of the quiz though. If they showed them in character, it would be too obvious.
