Cock. I hate to do this. It's too late to edit my post, but I have to add a name. I want to replace Chuck Berry with George R. R. Martin. I had better be wrong.

Does that earn you double points in the event?

My mind goes blank when I try to come up with names, any names, especially names of pop/rock musicians or actors. So here's what I put together eventually, in no particular order:

Roger Moore
Helmut Kohl
Valéry Giscard d'Estaing
Juan Carlos I of Spain
Mikhail Gorbachev
Chuck Yeager
Danielle Darrieux
Duchess of Kent
Bernie Ecclestone
Honor Blackman
