Famous people

[Freda7]

Please can anyone help? Have tried and tried but am getting nowhere. Would be very grateful for any help.
No. 3. Man of the House.( 4.7.10)
No. 24. Did Margaret's forefather drive this engine (6.7)
No. 31. Milk, Your Majesty. (5.7.)
I remember seeing a suggestion of Bernard Montgomery for No. 3 but I fail to se the connection.
Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks for your suggestion - I can't just think what the seven letter word could be but I'll go on trying.

Husband.

Thats possible a stupid answer (No3) Is this a quiz
in a particular magazine, ?

[ontarioice]

If memory serves me correctly, the person who suggested Lord Bernard Montgomery wrote that that would be "The Full Monty."

poorclare - No, it-s not a magazine quiz it's the Capel le Ferne Quiz on Famous People. Thanks for trying to help.
Ontariorice - Thanks for your comments - I'll have a good think about that.

Freda. It was me who originally suggested - very tentatively - Lord Bernard Montgomery. As far as I remember the actual clue was 'Complete man of the house', to which the answer might be (the ) full monty.
Translating that into a famous person, the best I could come up with was Lord Bernard Montgomery. ( The words fitted the letter pattern 4, 7, 10)
Field Marshal the Viscount Montgomery of Alamein was nicknamed Monty: he might have been known as Lord Montgomery informally, or as Bernard Montgomery by his friends and relations , but he would never have been called Lord Bernard Montgomery.
I would love to see a better suggestion!

Kettledrum - Many thanks for your explanation. Yes, I now can see the connection but, as you say, I am very doubtful about the Lord title. Thanks again for taking the trouble to explain.
