After yesterday's Twenty Hints on one of the threads, I was reminded of that old favourite Twenty Questions.
Rules reminders:-
Someone thinks of something/someone and posts a very minimal clue - just the category (person, film title, object or whatever)
Others post questions, to which the answer can only be "Yes" or "No" or guesses of who/what they are thinking of.
Questions are limited to twenty.
If someone guesses correctly within the twenty, they choose the next subject, or nominate someone else to do so.
If not, the answer is given and another subject chosen, either by whoever posted the unguessed one or by someone else who has been nominated.

I'll start it off - A person.

Is it knowing your appearance that would be helpful? (goes off to look at WB's photos)

He loved music and played violin, but that is not what he is known for and would be a red herring

Yes, I haven't seen it because my husband won't come with me. I thought you had a handicap on this question over to you wobblybits, used to read the column more than the books and believe the film is based on the column rather than the book.
