And that would be a good guess, there has been a racing pigeon timed at 110mph in level flight which is the fastest ever. Almost certainly wind assisted but still the fastest recorded. In normal flight they are more like 40mph although bursts of 70-80 are not uncommon.

Over to you

Oops - really wasn't expecting that to be right!

Ok, this may be really easy for some, but what links Andy Capp, Tom Jones, and the Plain White Ts

You're clearly in need of refreshment.
May I recommend a jar of Boddingtons:

You've got veins in your bodies,
We've got Boddies in our veins


Failing which some lemonade :)

They are all ex smokers
Andy Cap famously started to ‘give up’ when it become politically unacceptable to advertise smoking, not sure when that was but he was progressively drawn without a ciggy hanging out of his mouth more and more.

This may be true, but is not the answer I was looking for...

Do they all shoot with their left hand :p

Perhaps, but again, not what I’m looking for.

Will try and think of an appropriate clue...

Ok - time for a clue.

Tom Jones released a song in 1967 that is relevant, and which is very popular in the world of darts...

Andy capp is goes under a different name in Germany. He is known as Willi Wakker.

I havr no idea on the original question. Just a useless fact on Andy Capp.

Isn't Andy Capps snooker cue called Delilah?

Correct! Delilah is the link, and is the name of Andy Capp’s snooker cue

If any are not familiar with the Plain White T’s they are worth a listen in my opinion, and they also released a song called Hey There Delilah.

Well done Mark - over to you!
