Radio Times Christmas Picture Quiz 2012

[filmbuff]

Have got most of them. Am happy to swap answers.

[marray]

in your list of 50, not sure what 8 is. Bron/Broen=The Bridge. The white roller is "A Touch of Cloth" (police markings not shown) I've got a pic of the roller with a man siting on the front - looks like the "Quizzer" has airbrushed him out & put Engelbert on it. 13 (weather vane) I think isn't a clue, but above it is "Titanic" (4 funnels). I agree the earlier suggestion is correct of the Constellation of Orion = The Hunter=Sam Hunter=heroine of "The Hunted". If it was The Sky at Night I feel a full sky panorama of many signs would be shown. All good stuff, gets us all going ! 'By the cell 'anagram= Bletchley so i think it refers to "Bletchley Circle" think that's 50 ! All the best to you FireyColin for starting the fun and and also to the great minds who put their 2 pennyworth in as well.

I'm not convinced about the car being from A Touch of Cloth as they're different cars, unless you can provide a link to a photo to prove otherwise.

[Dave-W]

Marray,
Could you provide a link to your "roller" pic? I have looked but can find no picture of the same model lit from the front as the one in the quiz is.

[doctorwhofan]

anyone know if lava and volcano is 'Volcano Live', is to the sea to do with Vikings or something new?? Women on bike ? also the prints in the snow, thought it was The Snowman and the Snow dog? is the duty 'in the line of duty'? have 45 so far

[kuwaity]

I'm not convinced on the rolls royce either. Think it could be a red herring. I would say that yes, the volcano is Volcano Live. Footprints either strictly or dancing on ice? Could anyone help me with the policeman with the halo?

[doctorwhofan]

Police man with Halo is 'The Good Cop'

[kuwaity]

Many thanks Doctor Who Fan.

[towbar]

footprints in the snow are from someone in heels doing a waltz. Guess it's not dancing on ice then!

Just wondering about the Bletchley Circle. Could it be 'the codebreakers' - since it was presented as an anagram?

I have most except the church and the cartoon dog - and I wonder if the 50th clue is the clothes next to the SATB with the number 079 on it. No one seems to have mentioned this yet.

[doctorwhofan]

Some one else said 'by the cell' is an anigram of Bletchley.
Also someone else said the church was 'WhiteChapel'. the dog is from family guy.

I agree with you on the clothes next to the SATB, that intrigued me, just don't know what the significance is yet!!

[kuwaity]

If you look in the original photo that was provided, the coat with 620 on it is in that picture, so I don't think it is a clue. I am still pondering the clock, the rolls royce and whether the horns and 'to the sea' are two clues or one. Other than that I'm sticking with what I have! Surprised that Homeland hasn't featured. A big programme for 2012! Happy New Year everyone.

[scotchlass]

Thanks for the help - main queries seem to be:-
1. Hollyberry + wood - Great British Bake off or HollyOaks
2. Constellation - The Sky at Night or Hunted
3. Clock - The hour - or something to do with the Domesday clock or very cryptically - Question Time
4. Horns at sign - Vikings and/or Coast and/or Jersey Shores
5. Rope next to SATB doesn't seem to be in the original picture - so I'm not sure what this could be.
6. Assuming Wallace and Gromit and the Proms are one and the same programme.

[mercedita]

Me too. How do we go about it?

[mercedita]

Can anyone tell me if the lit streetlamp is a separate clue?

[mercedita]

Could the clock on the wall be referring to those 5 minute interviews on BBC's News24?

[scotchlass]

The streetlamp is in the original picture- before editing

[scotchlass]

Have 49 clues that I'm happy with identifying (not saying they're correctly identified though)- which means that the sign with the horns above it is the 1 remaining clue so I'm going with Vikings for this one.

[katherinelc]

im still confused about the viking horns i know there was a new series of coast this year but which viking programme would it be please ?

[Midnighter]

I've found a pic of the Roller from A Touch of Cloth and, as suggested, it's a completely different model to the one in the RT pic. I'd post a link but the URL is rather long. If you want to see the pic just do a Google image search for 'touch of cloth rolls'. That leaves me stuck on 49 and that's assuming that the 'to the sea' sign and horns are two separate clues.

[NotTheOracle]

What about the clock on the Chimney to the right (NOT the clock on the wall to the left)?

[Midnighter]

??? I can't see another clock. Do you mean the 3 on the cube on the roof to the right? That's Doctor Who.
