Nicely spotted, Jackdaw. Many thanks.

(At some universities, a 2.2 was known as a Desmond in the past.)

Tutu fits the puzzle easily, although there are ten 4-letter positions. Only one could possibly fit so it doesn't take long to find the correct one.
Similarly a 1st was a Geoff (Hurst)and a 3rd was a Richard (the Third). Can't remember what a 2:1 was.
A 2:1 degree is sometimes nicknamed an Attila the Hun (two-one) in the UK. The term Bren gun is also sometimes used as rhyming slang. Lower Second Class Honours This is the lower division of Second Class degrees and is abbreviated as ’2:2’ or ‘II.ii’ (pronounced two-two).
just thought i would lob that in,
Tutu .. 13,8,13,8 .. Q is 16 and Z is 18.
