      But not Tom or David Bowie né Jones? We need two others?

        Oddly enough, I met Mrs Jones, his mum... went to her flat, indeed. Long story.
        Re the matador - it's a film about a matador

          Neither Tom nor David I'm afraid - I'm still looking up the answers myself

                  oops, I've forgotten, hang on

                  update - Richard Jones (died 1744) ballad opera, The Mock Doctor, 1732

                  and I now find that Henry Fielding's The Mock Doctor [based on Le Medecin malgre lui ? ] also dates from 1732, so perhaps it was a collaboration

                        Totally spiffy mercs -

                        So we've got

                        Dan Jones Manolote or The Passion Within
                        Richard Jones The Mock Doctor
                        Trefor Jones Excalibur

                        Was it Caliban who broke the Jones code?

                        Good work team - sorry if my twizzled status and late arrival led to a bumpy ride

                            I think I first mooted the Jones word, yes. It's a tie between mercia, Flay and self re the elements.

                            Who wants to go next? I might be able to rustle something up in an hour or so...
