Is it the man - or woman - who performs the 'evil belly laughs' when a person is told they have to wait another three hours?

Another guess - is it the person who plays the drums?

I will award this to you. The person is the one who is in charge of the heart-lung machine during open heart surgery. The machine removes carbon dioxide from the blood and adds oxygen to it.
Over to you to set the next one.

Because not all of them have fused together yet (i.e the skull)? I think that's the reason that, when babies are born, their heads are a bit squashed.
Correct.
FYI babes born "via the garage doors" tend to have a squished head. Those born "via the sun roof" tend to have rounder heads. The spaces in the head are called fontanel's (apologies if I spelt it wrong) For the new parents out there. A small tip is when the soft spot is "sucking" or concave then your ickle one is dehydrated.
The skull (22 fused bones)
The coccyx (4 fused bones)
The sacrum (5 fused bones)
Probably a few more but that is about the extent of my general knowledge on the skeleton

Hooray! 
OK:
This is not my image. I found it online a while ago, and it was made by a guy called Stephen Wildish. OK, here's the question:
Name every Father Ted character here in order.
Enjoy!

Great so far, but can you name the others?

Apparently not!
With the increasing trend for multi-part questions - 16 in the current one- could things not be moderated by asking for say ten out of sixteen or five out of six and so on?
Just a thought.

Even better let's stick to single part questions.

But let's finish the current question first, shall we?

Who is Luke Newman? I'm starting to think I worded this question badly.

There was someone with that name in Mixed Martial Arts some time ago. I did not know that he played football.

Did it take place somewhere near the International Date Line.
I like your thinking but no.
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Just to clarify further, it isn't a trick question and it was in a professional club football competition. The goals were scored on different days in the country the game was played in, obviously not in the country you may have been watching in. Scored by a legendary footballer.
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Legendary footballer may have been an exaggeration. It was his last game for his club oddly enough.
