    Well done my friend. Knowledge of an 80's cultural reference essential for this one!

    Ok then, sticking with 80s theme - Liverpudlian boss is angry.

    He was the subject of the Faces question on an edition of Bullseye on Challenge the other night. Worryingly, I got it...

    I have no idea esp with DLR stops in the mix.

    It's not Bromley-by-Bow is it?

    No, it isn't.

    Nor is it on the DLR.

    Is it Charing Cross?

    (Char = Charles
    Ring = Rings
    And....I've no idea about the cross bit...)

    No.

    Rings/strikes/hits/peals makes no difference really.

    Jesus! You all have taken these riddles to an unreal level of difficulty!

    I'll make up some easy ones because I can't do the ones you guys have. :cry:

    If Lancelot was a troll, he'd hide under this.

    Someone who uses an implement similar to a needle. Not a needler but a…?

    Very correct with Pinner, well done!

    Sadly, no cigar with Flatstone.

    Sorry I was thinking of Harrow and Wealdstone.

    Pinner...Pinner....Underground Station??. Do trolls live there?

    And what's the connection with Lancelot?

    (my first reaction was London Bridge...but there you go)

    Knightsbridge.

    I didn't think mine was particularly difficult.

    Someone called Charles who's associated with "the bells, the bells"

    Dunno where Pinner came into into it then (unless it was two stations' clues)


    Charles Laughton could be associated with St-Michel Notre-Dame, but that is a Parisian Metro station and not the Tube??.
    I'm going to bed but I'll leave one of my own.

    A ghostly station, the name of an old music hall song and you might go down to this pub for a knees up.
