MYSTERY OBJECTS
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
No, but you're getting warmer, at least as far as the person's identity is confirmed. Still a long way to go but I won't give clues yet. I also want to know what the object is, not just what it represents.

Is he an old historical King?

I'm going for Good King Wenceslas and the space on the plinth behind him is for his page. Made of wood and a seasonal decoration.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Ha ha I was tempted a couple of times to jump on and say something similar.
It won’t be long now before we are all told ‘Your all no-where near it, blah blah blah, but here’s a well needed clue...’ Please

I got the magnifying glass out and decided it was The Invisible Man with Father Christmas. I thought that was so ridiculous I didn't post it.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
OK kids, Mrs Tiz has told me to stop reading the latest election news on the BBC site and pay attention to your pleas.
Cathy was the first to suggest `an old historical king' and she was bang on target with that! But he's none of those so far suggested. I'll narrow it down to a British king - but he's not a statue, so what is he?
Here's a clue - he's just had a brief holiday in Greenwich.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
No, but to avoid a series of posts on Williams I'll tell you that it's William IV. The question now is, what is the object?

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Just an aside, here in Adelaide our main city street is King William Street from King William IV, and his wife was called Adelaide.
