5. I think that a close examination suggests he is just kissing her hand. There is something about her though.
Choose between Henry Ford, Charlton Heston, Thomas More, Thomas Jefferson, Leon Trotsky, George Bernard Shaw, Abraham Lincoln and Frank Lloyd Wright.

Thomas Moore, surely. The quote is hardly 15th century English. But all moors look the same?
Answers as far as I have them:
1. Charlton Heston
2. Thomas More (1478-1535)
3. Abraham Lincoln
4. Leon Trotsky

1. Charlton Heston
2. Thomas More
3. Abraham Lincoln
4. Leon Trotsky
5. What is Charles doing with Anna Friel? I thought that after she had kicked David Thewliss into touch she would be mine (wife permitting)!
