Haley?

This sure is my kind-a quiz.

The composer of the operetta ‘Tom Jones’ was Edward German. It is the only show I have played in (I never did ‘Kiss Me Kate’) that contains a bit, albeit mild, of fladge. I don’t know if this was in the original production, or if the director of the revival was kinky.

Question 4/6: If it’s Liverpool, it must be Gerry Needs a Pacemaker.

1/9 Dreyfus
2/3 Tom Jones
4/3 Plimsoll Line
4/5 Mason-Dixon Line
4/7 Maginot Line
4/9 Bowline
Assume all answers in 4 end in Line so the Liverpool one is I guess a shipping line.
5/5 Think this a reference to Christminster, the fictional Oxford in Hardy's Jude the Obscure
5/8 Probably the Imp in Lincoln Cathedral
7/2 Second Childhood
18/5 Cricket Umpire Daryl Hair

And shining morning face, creeping like snail
Unwillingly to school...
