[S] Alive when the photo was taken. Still is, in fact.
Is there a link to Mornington Crescent?
[B] No link to Mornington Crescent.
Any connect to a sport?
[B] No connection to any sport.
Is this an accidental capture of some kind?
[SM] Not accidental. Very deliberately composed.
Is the face of the human visible?
If not medical, how about scientific?
Very deliberately composed, but not art, and not a record of anything... Yet well-known and memeworthy. That combination's a stumper.
The first AI generated human face?
Doh, no, because human is alive. Forget that.
Is it a deepfake?
[P] Not a deepfake. (Made before this century, it wouldn't be.)
Is the photograph in/of an easily identifiable location?
[C] No identifiable location.
Sorry, I missed Boolbar and Simons:
[B] The person's face is visible. (Knowing murmurs from the audience.)
[SM] Not scientific (but approving murmurs from the audience).
[SM] Your summary is spot on.
Is it Test Card F, featuring Carole Hersee and Bubbles the Clown?
Fanfares! Streamers! Orgies in the aisles! It is indeed Test Card F. Have this chalkboard and stuffed clown to make your very own!
Oh, well, that's embarrassing. Okay. What I have here seems to be mostly MINERAL.
Liquid?
[P] Extremely not liquid.
Gas?
[b] Even less so, I'd say.
Hmm.. tricky. Solid?
[B] As a rock.
A rock?
Unique?
Wow! Congrats both to goldfinch and Raak on that last one
Terrestrial?
A unique terrestrial rock!
[T] v. kind
A valuable mineral?
[R] Its value, while arguably immense, is not primarily monetary in nature.
It is valued for being a site of natural beauty?
[R] It is indeed a site, and sight, of natural beauty.
In North America?
[T] Not in North America
A mountain?
[R] Mindful of pedantry, I’m inclined to say “in the mountain family”.
In England?
[P] No, not in England.
A meteorite crater?
Uluru, formerly known as Ayers Rock?
[B] No meteorites involved, no.
[R] Not Uluru.
Lord Hereford's Knob ?
The Earth?
[SM] It is not, but that's on me for not having any previous knowledge of a landform called Lord Hereford's Knob.
[b] It...certainly protrudes from it, but no, more localised than that.
Does it have a name?
[R] It has a name.
It is some other, er, prominence that has had a song written about it?
[SM] Not famously, if at all (I can’t find any prominent examples)
(That being said, there are nevertheless books, films and poems about it, or in which it features.)
In the British/Irish archipelago?
[P] Yes, in the British Isles
Is it higher than Scafell Pike?
[B] (checks tape measure) lower than Scafell Pike
In Wales?
[P] It's not in Wales.
Is it on a Scottish Island?
[B] It's not on a Scottish island.
Rockall?
[SM] While arguably all rock, it's not Rockall.
Is it in Scotland?
[R] Yes! It’s in Scotland.
The Trossachs ?
Arthur's Seat?
Salisbury Crags?
[blamelewis] Aye! It is indeed Arthur’s Seat. Take these bagpipes and a sturdy pair of hiking boots, and either play to the wind or chuck them off the top, I guess.
Huzzah! Oh gosh, I've got to do one now. Erm... Animal
Named Arthur?
Worth checking
An individual?
Begins with a Q?
Edible?
[Tuj] Not aware of any of them going by Arthur.
[Raak] Not an individual.
[Projoy] 25 more guesses.
[Simons] Possibly, but it's not a regular part of the human diet. Also lots of people would be quite cross.
Typically owned as a pet?
Have they got tails?
[Raak] No.
[Tuj] Yes.
Carnivorous?
A primate?
A rabbi?
[Bismarck] Not carnivorous
[Raak] Not a primate
[Simons] What do you call a rabbit without a tail? No in either case!
An endangered species?
[Raak] Yes!
Terrestrial?
A bird?
[goldfinch] Yes.
[Boolbar] Yes.
Good at sneezing?
Is it a native of the British Isles?
[Simons] Don't think so.
[Raak] No.
Kakapo?
Yes! The amazing, critically endangered Kakapo - well done!
Wow, whoops!
...and on we go! Can you figure out this ABSTRACT next please?
There are connections, strongest mineral, but they're probably safer not mentioned.
Electricity?
Alchemy?
The starter's gun is fired!
[SM] No!
[bl] No!
Death?
Dead as as a doornail. This is entirely mineral.
Does it begin with P?
Oh dear, a false start
I went off before the gun. What do I do, go back two questions?
