[Big_Fudge]

I sort of understand the James Caan one being Misery but what does that have to do with the double e's insteads of i's?

[hlk1]

i'm not happy with my answer for Fine French writer either

[Meadow24]

In the us gravel can mean (to annoy)which would lead you to Illinois. I cant make a connection from gravel to tar to make you tar (Utah)

[ichkeria]

"i'm not happy with my answer for Fine French writer either "

Just to spell it out:
OK = fine
"La Homer" = French (definite article) writer (Classical Greek poet)
That makes Oklahoma, which is a state in the US. OK, it's a bit far fetched, but not as bad as Collar a dough (!)

[ichkeria]

"In the us gravel can mean (to annoy)which would lead you to Illinois. I cant make a connection from gravel to tar to make you tar (Utah) "

The clue is something like "... and I'll fetch the gravel"
So:
"You tar .... and I'll fetch the gravel"
It's the right answer :-)

[hlk1]

First 3 are same as I have got, Oregon has already been used on a previous set of questions

[dajobe]

We've already had Oregon, ichkeria. Your others are right though I think.

[hlk1]

Q35 Over And Over

[froggyface]

You are all naughty cheats and i'm grassing to Mr Osman.....;-)

[hlk1]

Before or after you've made a note of the answers, lol x Anyway, still can't get those 2 I've listed above :-(

[dajobe]

I'm still stumped on those as well.

[Meadow24]

Same here has pavlova got anything to do with baked Alaska

[hlk1]

thats all I came up with, but not sure what Jack has to do with it . Hmmm ....

[dajobe]

Jack Frost maybe? Frozen pavlova = Alaska? Tenuous I know, but it's all I've got.

[JC_Denton]

Pavlova's first name was Anna. Could be Indiana? But don't know how Jack eats fits in.....

[bulliver]

I think 'Jack' is Jack Dee, the comedian...

Jack Eats A Pavlova = Indiana - 'in' (i.e. eaten) + (Jack) 'Dee' + 'Anna' (Pavlova)
