Could be right boxy, TJ was 2000 I think.

[boxtops]

Tisk, I have treated Yorkshire as one county, I bet the answer is the relatively new metropolitan county of West Yorkshire....

[mrs_overall]

OK, the answers I wanted are:

1. Roger Hargreaves
2. The Mikado
3. Great White Shark
4. Tom Jones
5. West Yorkshire

I can't allow the German singer as the answer because
a) it's not the answer I have
b) there may have been an even more recent version somewhere remote like Papua New Guinea - I have to draw the line somewhere
c) I've never heard of it.

I'm feeling generous - more cake all round

Yorkshire was never one county for administrative purposes. Before 1974 it was divided into the North, East and West Ridings.
