Question Author
thank you all very much. The only answer I'm not too sure about is No 42, Brand. I can't find a literary character with that name! Any other suggestions??
Brand is a character of Henrik Ibsen (Norwegian).
Does that help?
"Brand" is a play by Ibsen - I suppose that's where the Norweigan part of the clue comes in - It's a verse tragedy and Brand is the name of the main character.

Sorry that should read Ibsen's
