Maybe- but that's going back a bit

[Ken4155]

^
They are not always current, ff. And there are never any clues as to which period they belong to.

[dannyk13]

I agree with Ken,I can remember Fred Perry being one answer.

[mallyh]

how do you get the missing letters ?

[fiction-factory]

Okay. I have no idea which crossword this is so can't comment further but accept what you say

[dannyk13]

Mally type ?? and the letters into the anagram solver.

[dannyk13]

FF, I don't think this is a crossword.

[mallyh]

I wondered if there was a clue bazigi could give us to get the missing letters x

[fiction-factory]

Okay, thanks danny- it was in Crosswords section so I jumped to the wrong conclusion

[dannyk13]

Mally, that was the only name that came up with the known letters & ??.

[Ken4155]

It is from the Daily Mirror's 'The Name Game.

[dannyk13]

Which day Ken? It is not today's ?

[dannyk13]

Oops, ignore that Ken. Reading wrong paper.

[Ken4155]

It is today's Danny:-)

[Ken4155]

The 2 questions bazigi couldn't answer were; How many Von Trap children were there in Sound Of Music (Seven gives the letter B) and Which actress recorded a song under a pseudonym protesting against the nudity on the album cover for Two Virgins (Sissy Spacek gives the letter S).

[dannyk13]

Ken // (Seven gives the letter B)// ?

[Ken4155]

Yes Danny, the letter is not the initial of the answer. For instance; Q3; How many Von Trapp children are there in Sound Of Music film? Five (U), Seven (B), Nine (D).
