Desparate last try,have to hand in tomorrow Fictional character from a book or play C, for instance in most of yorkshire town?(8) Thanks to all who have tried
Still no joy!
Thanks for the thought, BabsG !
The sequence CIE only comes in plurals or in such words as SCIENCE (or could be CEG).
Taking THIRSK as the required town, we can form "names" like THIRCIES??
The closest I get to an acceptable word is THIRTIES!
