Is clue 5 definately right?. Struggling with 1 aswell- cant find any songs or books with those letters&numbers

[emmie]

why do they have to be songs or books, bob

[bobbinwales]

DOnt have to be, am referring to 23 which says "by DH" which imply's book, song, poem, play, film

[bobbinwales]

^Meant clue one- 23MP by DH

For clue 5 was thinking of 3 men and a baby if its 3 not 11
Theres a film called 11 men and a girl but none for boy.

Ok just checked & clue 5 is right - 11 M and a B

[bobbinwales]

Got number 5 now, justtried 11 men and a boy and it said wrong but close, then went for my first thought which was 11 men and a ball and it was right. Never heard the expression. Thought football would be 22 men (or women) and a ball

[bobbinwales]

5 was the name of an 1948 Italian comedy it seems

[emmie]

same with cricket, 11men and a ball or bat.

[bobbinwales]

1 could be this but its a bit weak

4) 123 storeys in the Lotte World Tower (Seoul)

[bobbinwales]

[bobbinwales]
