      Three queens in your hand, subby?

      Margaretha Königin in Castilien (Telemann)
      Königin von Saba (Goldmark)
      Königin der Schwarzen Insel
      (Eberl)

        That took you almost as long to solve as it took me to set it. Can you keep up this L of a pace?

          Evidently not!
          Be with you all soon: I've got my L - just need some fiendishly subtle-worded clues.

            Okey-dokey, try this:

            Russell Grant had nothing on this Nasher; but Who benefited from his offspring?

              Hang on a mo... Catching up here having returned from work. What is the Queen Elizabeth I link to Johnson?

              What for that matter is the Eric Clapton link?

              "...the isle is full of noises,
              Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
              Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
              Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                EDIT: And another (I presume: devilish bargains commonplace here?) Robert Johnson was one of Gloriana's court composers.

                  And the QE1 link?

                  It's bad enough having to google/wiki/brainstorm the questions, without having to do so to understand the answers too!

                      To the stands with you, Cloughie!!

                      Following in the footsteps of your footballing namesake, doubtless... (if my memories of 1970s Nottingham are correct)

                      I just think it's more fun if - especially after the answers are strung out over several pages - either the settor or the triumphant settee pulls it all together in one place. Then the fun and frolics become informative too!
