sonyc 5,517 Posted May 17, 2020 Mr Purple has upped the level of difficulty, or maybe I should say less transparent. The bridge looks like it could be San Francisco (Golden Gate?) and I recognised Billie Holiday. I know no TV series though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,517 Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) It's defeated me. Others will know (I reckon I'm quite narrow minded probably in what I might watch...and even then get bored quickly. May not know it even if you told me. I was pleased though getting Curb) Ps. That film one bugged me before and now. Hope someone gets it soon and puts me out of misery ....maid? riot? yellow vests? flames / fire ....hmmm Edited May 17, 2020 by sonyc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope someone gets it soon and puts me out of misery ....maid? riot? yellow vests? flames / fire ....hmmm The TV series Number 10 is a few decades back, but very well known. Perhaps for these TV ones you need to bring kick it off off the bench?! The extra film at the end is also very well known. The answer might provoke some exasperation...😜 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PurpleCanary 5,558 Posted May 18, 2020 That leaves 1, 3, 4 and 6, plus the pesky film. With 1 and 4 the TV series are perhaps a bit millennial generation. I would say 3 and 6 are well-known series, but confess that the clue to 6 is tricky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
