What connects A – J to a particular role played by both K and L ?
The connect – Agatha Christie’s best selling work ever ‘And Then There Were None’ .
In the book , ten people are invited to an island and are mysteriously murdered in the manner of a nursery rhyme . Pics A – J show the ways in which they are murdered . The rhyme is as follows :
“Ten little Soldier boys went out to dine;
One choked ( A ) his little self and then there were nine.
Nine little Soldier boys sat up very late;
One overslept ( B ) himself and then there were eight.
Eight little Soldier boys traveling in Devon ( C – Devon Aoki ) ;
One said he’d stay there and then there were seven.
Seven little Soldier boys chopping up sticks;
One chopped himself in halves ( D ) and then there were six.
Six little Soldier boys playing with a hive;
A bumblebee stung ( E ) one and then there were five.
Five little Soldier boys going in for law;
One got in Chancery ( F – shows the court of Chancery ) and then there were four.
Four little Soldier boys going out to sea;
A red herring ( G ) swallowed one and then there were three.
Three little Soldier boys walking in the zoo;
A big bear hugged one ( H ) and then there were two.
Two Little Soldier boys sitting in the sun;
One got frizzled up ( I – shows Sunburns ) and then there was one.
One little Soldier boy left all alone;
He went out and hanged himself ( J ) and then there were none”
K is Vanessa Redgrave and L is Fenella Woolgar , both have portrayed Agatha Christie on screen .
Brilliant effort by Freestyler to reach the Agatha Christie connection . Good effort from Appu as well . They score 2 and 1 points respectively .












A is Ozzie Guellin, manager of Chicago White Sox, C is Devon Aoki, then there is a Husky and a Polar Bear in H, is that the Berlin Conference in E? – they are connected somehow to Agatha Christie (played by Vanessa Redgrave and Fenessa Woolgar)… But cant figure out how
No idea boss. I just cant identify the two ladies, so unable to make any headway.
Choke sign by Ozzie Guillen, Devon Aoki, Sunburn, Polar bear & arctic wolf, half car, Romanian Jews hung by Nazis led me nowhere.
Very intriguing though.
Is the first lady (also features on a The Smiths album cover) Joan Fontaine and hence the role is from Rebecca?
Superb…..Dats all i can say…….simply superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Real nice one.
Top class qn! Really superb!
A great qstn !
