[Hairyanne]

A big "Thank you" to everybody who replied to my plea! Especially Mamyalynne, who took the trouble to type out all the names. I have gone all through lists of people too, and not found one that is likely!
Never mind - thanks again to everyone.

[Mamyalynne]

I don't deserve that special thanks, I did however copy and paste the list.


Have you given us the full clue ?

[sir.prize]

Once more - do you have any letters already placed? It might be helpful.

[factor-fiction]

I think Bernine may be right if it's 7 letters and fits the pattern
Does the crossword not state the number of letters?

He's a well-known actor with eight of his films.
