"Hang on, don't tell me..."
Posted by David Hepworth on 7 July 2008 - 1:22pm.
Forgive me for posting it again, but this puzzling example of rock "sculpture" deserves the attention of the wider public.
People have already hazarded guesses at precisely who the Jorkins these thumb marks in plasticine are supposed to represent. Nominations have so far included Peter Glaze, John Conteh and the Albino bloke out of Big Brother.
Care to offer your own left to right?

I'm going with...
(l-r) Edwyn Collins, Daley Thompson, the Wicked Witch of the West and Peter Frampton.
Million Dollar Quartet
I'm going for Elvis, Jimi, Lennon and eh, Bruce Forsythe?
With you on the first three
But the fourth is a tough one ... Neil from The Young Ones?
I reckon it has to be...
Mick Box of the Heep.
We're not at home to Miss Catty!
Saucer of milk.
Surely on the right
It's Bruce Forsyth !!
The fantastic four
Superman, Rambo, Formula one magnate - Bernie Ecclestone, Jimmy Savile
Now then, now then...
the 4th is definitely Sir James.
Yes yes yes
it's Bernie i couldn't make it mout but it's him.
no, no it's
rick astley, a harlem globe trotter, one of the crows from Dumbo and cat weasel.
How big is it in real life?
It's like Tap's Stonehenge
I've seen bigger wedding cakes.
I'm guessing
Larry Mullen, Richard Rowntree as Shaft, Paul Mcgann and Sir Jimmy Savile. Although I could be mistaken.
Its.....
David Walliams, a strangely moustachioed Rab C Nesbitt, Ray Manzarek and one of those strange beings from Vic;n'Bob, is it Charlie Chuck or somesuch?
Nah!
Johnny Cash, John McEnroe, Arthur Askey & the bloke from Foghat
From the left its...
...William Shatner, Arthur Lee, Max von Sydow and Ryan Sidebottom
Ryan Sidebottom!
Give that man a point.
is the one in the glasses
Frank sidebottom then
Someone put me out of my misery...
seriously, just who the hell IS that one on the right?? I'm trying not to cheat and look it up but I really don't get it!
Spoiler
I originally posted the original press release in the, er, original posting by Original Dave H.
So I'm not telling.
Don't let daylight in on magic
The truth is bound to be a dissapointment.
Disappointment?
Puzzlement more like.
So, you have found the venue for the Word blog Christmas Party then!
You mean
I was wrong with Biff then? Thanks, I will refer to your comment in the previous post when my brain can take no more racking!
Seriously....
....it couldn't be Ted Nugent, could it?
It looks
a bit like the farmer from "Babe-the sheep pig" with long hair
I got it!
It's Biff Byford...from legendary trouser worriers Saxon?
Mount Wiremore
Carcetti, Cutty, Bodie's meemaw and Bubbles
no no no
I've got the last 2 on the right , far right Rod Hull left Emu (wearing glasses for when use to pretend to be teacher or summat in the pink windmill)
The one on the right....
....I've just looked to see who it's supposed to be....I'm in a complete state of shock. Are they mad? Or blind????
I'm reminded of Lionel Ritchie's Hello video....
Comedy is the new rock 'n' roll
Lenny Bruce, Richard Pryor, George Burns and Larry David
Sidebottom
Being Irish and knowing nothing about cricket, I've never heard of Ryan Sidebottom but I've just googled him and I think we have a winner!
I thought Sidebottom was the comedian with the papier-mache head
He used to be on late night programmes on Channel 4, usually made by the Channel X production company.
No
That's Frank Skinner
no that's
frank Carson
no that's
Johnny Carson.
no, no my mistake
it's Willy Carson...
Hmmmm....
Lou Diamond Phillps, Bunk from The Wire, Plain Jane Superbrain and Edgar Winter
Well...
That's Mark Lamarr on the left, Richard Harris on the right...
No, sorry. I give up.
I'll have a go...
...Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon and Willie Nelson? I'm fairly sure the first three are right but the last one is baffling.
process of elimination
the first three are clearly not Bono.
EASY
Mark Kermode,Chuck Norris,Arthur Askey,Bruce Forsyth. What do i win ? The Far right could have been Richard Harris in "A Man Called Horse" but that was put in to fool you.
Could be anybody
I'd go for the Banana Splits.
Bingo, Flealge, Drooper and Snork. Tra la la. La la la la.
It's clearly
From left to right
1. Marcus Tandy from Eldorado
2. Paul Breitner
3. Larry from U2
4. Darnell from Big Brother
What's my prize?
you watch ...
big brother....! ;)
I try
to keep abreast of all culture, popular and otherwise.
Jerry
Garcia, surely?
Blimey
Westlife have let themselves go, haven't they?
The First
is either Matt or Luke Goss though could be both as you can't see the other side, second is Rory McGrath, third Woody Allen and agree that the fourth must be Brucie
I'm going for...
...Waddy Wachtel, far right.
He's worked with everyone.
Probably even Peter Glaze and John Conteh.
Jackson and Warren just out of shot...
Steve Cropper, Russ Kunkel, David Lindley, Leland Sklar.
LEEDSBOY
What a spot!.Marcus from Eldorado. I kneel at your feet.
I was prouder
of Paul Breitner to be honest. 70's german footballers being the very opposite of cool.
Speaking of which. . .
has anyone else ever noticed that Gerd "Der Bomber" Müller's eyes are set even closer together than Bjorn Borg's?
Thought not.
I go along with Conteh and Savile...
...but the first and third are surely Manuel Noriega and Peter Mandelson
The first (far left)
is surely Martin "Don't mention The Professionals" Shaw.
is it a new senakot ad possibly?
from left..
1. 'no, not happening'
2. 'REALLY not happening'
3. 'call the ambulance...'
4. (the following morning) 'thank you, senakot..'
sorry...
118 118
2nd from the left is obviously one of the 118 118 men so why not just phone him up and find out who his friends are.
