1. Paolo Rossi
2. Lys Assia of Switzerland with the song Refrain. (In case anyone thinks I'm cheating on this, I used the song last month as part of the chain thread on the PNE board, and it stuck in my mind). Unique because it was the first Eurovision winner, and also I don't think the contest was televised.
3. Trevor Brooking - winning goal in the FA Cup final, between Ricky Villa and Alan Sunderland
4. No idea on this. Tolkien's son?
5. West Bromwich
6. Mark Snow
7. Six - Germany '90, Germany '96, Argentina '98, Portugal '04, Portugal '06, Italy '12
8. A shrubbery. Brilliant film, watched it again in March.
9. Syd Barrett? Don't really know, not a Floyd fan.
10. Hugo Weaving, been in tons of stuff including the cricket drama Bodyline, but I guess Lord Of The Rings is the answer
