Hi, earthakitten. Hope these clues have come in time for you, but just got in from work.

25. Try the World Cup winners and their starting eleven for the final.

59. Starred John Cusak as a puppeteer.

90. A classic children's educational magazine from the 60s, 70s and early 80s.

102. I managed to get this answer from smouse's clue.

116. See my clue to heatherglen's posting just before yours.

120. No, but this person has the same real surname as the person you are thinking of, and this actors first name is coincidentally the first three letters of 120's pseudonym surname.

Many many thanks to you all. I got 25, 59, 90, 120 ... I think !!! It's in the post now so I can now rest (and so can you) What a stinker. I think I must practice googling as my efforts refused to give me the info I wanted.
Ah well, on to the October ones now.
I'm sure we will meet again soon ! xxxx
