Radio Times Big Picture Quiz 2019

[MarilynneT]

Who's made a start on this years quiz? I'm stuck with a few up to now. The woman in green in the window on the left and the man in the window above. Also is that a little white dog on the bottom right? There's also a the man on the motorycycle with a woman in the sidecar?

[Fletcher19]

My 50th clue is the large globe under the tree showing Africa - I have put that down as Serengeti, but not sure!

[Dave-W]

I can't see any fingerprint over the motorcyle pair, except my own thumbprint due to holding the magazine page there!

[MarilynneT]

Thanks Dave. It must be a printing error on mine.

[andrewc]

With the gold and snake gone I’m also scraping for a 50th clue and thought I’d have to use the globe. Seems a bit odd that they wouldn’t indicate Serengeti more clearly. I like the hatstand being a clue and doctor who does seem possible.

[cyclingtosspot1]

Not going to be a hatstand link to an old dr who. I’ve got 50 without the hatstand or the pile of gold which is definitely a red herring. The fingerprint above the A/R clue is not on my image either. I’m just not sure about the globe under the white tree, could be Massive Africa or Serengeti.

[JS1978]

I put it down as Our Planet

[scotchlass]

Think it’s Massive Attica as the continent is much bigger than you’d usually see on a globe,

[scotchlass]

Massive Africa that is.

[andrewc]

That’s an interesting idea but I’m wondering if it just looks massive because half the image is covered. Compare with the small globes. Someone on MSE suggests Africa with Ade Adepitan which seems a good fit

[jendrops]

This is my 50, have I gone wrong anywhere anyone please?

[andrewc]

I agree except: you've put an 'a' in game of thrones, I'd put women's world cup and I've gone for ade adepitan rather than massive africa, but that's partly because I'd not heard of the latter

[rd24726]

Really not sure about the pink dress being killing eve because that pink dress was in series1 which aired 2018 not 2019.

[rd24726]

Also is there a snake near the dancers feet or am I just seeing things

[andrewc]

There’s always an element of this. I think the pink dress could be used if it was an iconic image while maybe not the hatstand if more associated with the past but clearly subjective. I’ve accepted that the snake like stripes are just that, partly because having become an expert in black and white striped snakes I couldn’t fit any of them to a recent show. Celebrity was the best idea but it’s a bit general.

[scotchlass]

Lorraine Kelly did Fake or snake on Today. That was a black and white striped one. Bit of a long shot, but I’m done to my last clue and can only see the snake as it. Any other ideas? I’m also going for Rocket Wars for the lollies I think.

[Dave-W]

At first I put 'Summer of Rockets' for the two ice lollies, but then I thought 'Britain's Favourite Food' was better because it featured the 'zoom' lollies in the picture. The trouble is that the programme was broadcast in March 2018, so doesn't qualify for the competition (unless it was repeated?). So I'm thinking the lollies must refer to 'The Apprentice' as they had to make lollies in one episode, although nothing like those rockets.

In case you need it here is a link to a high res copy of the quiz. https://www.ianmckinnell.com/blog

[Mork30]

If the “snake” is a clue, there was a snake in Giri/Haji No idea if it was black and white stripes

[brainiac]

What's the prize, and how do you enter?
