As there don't seem to be any worshippers of Azathoth on the forum I'll accept your answer as the nearest. Your turn...
Bah!!! Of course! I had Azeroth on my mind but that’s the world in which world of Warcraft is based. I don’t feel overly worthy for this one so OPEN FLOOR/BOOK PLEASE

Mona Lisa?
Surprisingly no

I'll suggest The Fighting Temeraire, tugged to her last berth to be broken up, 1838 by Joseph Mallord William Turner RA.

If I'm right, an open shipyard will follow.
An undeniable masterpiece, but unfortunately no

The Queen's head on a stamp.
Good thinking, but alas not correct in this instance

Washington on the dollar bill?
I would think it would be up there but not the response I’m after


Windows logo
I’ll give you this one to keep the game moving for the day as i have a busy one ahead of me.

It is the background of windows XP. The hills and sky picture known as ‘Bliss’ by Charles O’rear.

Over to you @DaleCooper

Quick edit: the question was ‘considered’ it probably should have read ‘believed’ as obviously there is no statistical proof as you would have to ask every single person in the world!

Denise Coffey appeared in the Burkiss Way, she also played the role of the evil Mrs. Black in Captain Fantastic in Do Not Adjust Your Set, which was supposed to be for children, but like the Magic Roundabout became something of a cult amongst adults.

Who played the part of Captain Fantastic?

Thanks. Now which television program encouraged you to “switch off your television set and go out and do something less boring instead!” ?
