..Swanee river?

andres

Please ignore my answer. Obviously not a British river

Flonska

I think the Swannee river is in South Georgia USA and the clue is for a British River?

Missquiz . . . Do you have the number of letters and/or any of them?

scooping

Mersey?

Sorry I don't know the number of letters.

Flonska

This one is rather obscure and I am not that confident that it is the answer but "Children Children" written by Paul McCartney features the line "I know a tyne waterfall."

Good answer flonska. I've got Tyne for another answer. I keep thinking Mersey but is that purely the Liverpool connection rather than a song!

Flonska

Yes it is. "Ferry Cross the Mersey" was recorded by Gerry & The Pacemakers and I think was written by the group leader Gerry Marsden. This one possibly appears to be just the name of a river within one of the song lyrics rather than accompanied by the word "River" itself. I shall ponder some more . . .

Thank you flonska. It's been suggested that it could be Wye as they recorded a song 'Ask me why.' Not sure tho.

Togo

Sorry to divert Miss. Good quiz question... "What is the only river in Britain to flow due North"?

Mamyalynne

There's a couple in Ireland I think, Bann is one.

Ah, sorry I was way off that.

Togo

So as not to pinch Miss's thread..... River Conwy.

Flonska

Following my previous suggestion @ 17:38 on 07/07/17 this next reference may also be very tenuous . . .

According to some sources the Beatles' song "Get Back" began as a satirical and critical look at attitudes towards immigrants in Britain and it was loosely based on British politician Enoch Powell's notorious 'Rivers of Blood' speech.

If River Wye from "Ask Me Why" is considered plausible, then how about River Wear from the lyrics of several songs - eg. Come Together has the lyric "He wear no shoeshine...".

You can search Beatles song lyrics using this website: http://www.beatlesagain.com/btlyrics.html

I only discovered Wear, but there may be other more obscure rivers to be found.

Thanks for all suggestions. I can't get this one at all. I've got just under a week left.

Can a word of the title sound like a river?

Togo

Kansas? Kansas City, Beatles For Sale.
