Radio Times Big Picture Quiz 2013

[scotchlass]

Have got quite a few but really stuck on:-

White Van, Lizard, Gameshow board, and telescope.

Any ideas?

[chokkie]

any offers anyone? Hope you can help. Cheers,
Chox.

[jocknroll]

Chox,

Some of that list you posted were from last year and not this one.

[chokkie]

jocknroll ... such as? Royal Wedding and Merlin are two, but not sure about any others, as there are so many repeats everywhere. Chox.

[BlueToffee]

Wow, I'm impressed, you can actually afford a Radio Times this year. :))

[jocknroll]

Chox,

"Spooks
Frozen Planet
OUtnumbered
who do you think you are
University challenge
eith out of ten cats
royal wedding
Masterchef
lifes too short
garrow law
spooks
Mary queen of frocks
Baking made easy"

None of these from the list you posted are in it this year.

The Glastonbury tor is presumably just Glastonbury as BBC covered the festival. The microphone is 'The Hour'. Everybody seems to have missed Wimbledon and Black Mirror. I also am unsure as to why the 50 sign is Doug Who except that it seemed to be trailered 50 times a day.

[filmbuff]

Still unsure of 50 in a circle. Believe the others are:-
The Cube Call the Midwife Black Mirror Splash Poirot The White Queen Ripper Street Top Boy Top of the Lake Strictly Come Dancing Not Going Out Eastenders Broadchurch Masters of Sex Peaky Blinders Dancing on Ice One Born Every Minute The Tunnel Pointless Wimbledon The Great British Sewing Bee Dragon's Den Gogglebox Pet School (?) Paul Hollywood's Bread Mr Selfridge Endeavour The Voice (unless it was one of those Gareth Malone Sing for Victory type things) Dancing On the Edge Downton Abbey Royal Paintbox Under the Dome Rick Stein's India Coronation St. Borgen Death in Paradise The Hour Top Gear The Wipers Times Glastonbury coverage Great British Bake-off Homeland Stella Spiral Star-gazing Live Game of thrones

[filmbuff]

... and Young Montalbano

[filmbuff]

Sorry. Missede 'Only Connect'. Think that's all.

[snaillover]

filmbuff..I didn't watch The Hour but Googled it, most articles say it finished in 2012.

[ellie44]

just a thought but could the silhoettes be britains got talent as the winners danced in silhoette also the yellow cake could be martha bakes yellow cake? apologies for saying murder in paradise in an earlier thread should have been death in paradise. bit puzzled really as I have 51 so which is the red herring

[filmbuff]

Yes The Hour finished at the tail end of 2012. Amazing how time flies. Am fairly sure about the rest.

[filmbuff]

And I now agree that the silhouette dancers are from Britain's Got Talent.
I don't see any clue for I'm a Celebrity... I did wonder if the microphone was Dancing On the Edge as the Beeb really bigged it up. Any thoughts, anybody?

[ramsfan]

Thanks Ellie 44 and film buff. I thought dancing on the edge was a good answer but the image looks much more like those silhouettes. Celebrity came from I'm out. It was my first thought but dragons den is better. I've been through last few years answers and they don't use films so I'm heading back to spiral. You'd imagine that when the artist was given the list a few weeks ago they didn't say oh and the spiral staircase is going to be on Xmas eve so include that

[guygreenwood]

Has anyone got any idea about the poster to the right of Craig Revel Horwood ??
"Keeping a ...Tar/Tab...Nick B"

[snaillover]

The Poster is of Nick Brody...Homeland.

[scorpiojo]

Nick Brody - Homeland has been suggested

[jocknroll]

The microphone could be Dancing On The Edge but the the mic pictured doesn't look like the one featured in the show.

[jbrucem]

Is the plane towing the banner one clue or two?
The Morse code on the banner spells out "Endeavour" but the plane also has "ADS" written on the wings which makes me think of Mad Men.
Which means that there appear to be 51 clues...?

[guygreenwood]

I can't help thinking that the tunnel sign must mean more than just The Tunnel - seems too obvious.
And what is the meaning off all the snow and snowflakes ?
