Been trying most of today to get the final two:
According to the book 'From Strength To Strength' about ageing, doctors reach their intellectual peak at what age: 30s, 40s or 50s?
What is the top poison measured by the number of criminal cases in the UK: arsenic, cyanide or strychnine?
I think I've exhausted all sources, so any help gratefully received!

1. appears to be in their 30's. Here is a piece from the book.
Other knowledge fields follow the same basic pattern. For writers, decline sets in between about forty and fifty-five. Financial professionals reach peak performance between the ages of thirty-six and forty. Or take doctors: they appear to peak in their thirties, with steep drop-offs in skill as the years pass.

Hi everyone, and thanks for your help - took a break from the internet today as this was doing my head in! Will go with your suggestions for the two I am stuck on, and also think it's Jeffrey Archer for the penthouse as he famously hosted his parties (Krug and shepherd's pie, I think) there. Could be setter's error.
