The first all correct entry drawn was Joe Taffis who wins the £30 CREDIT that was the first prize for my last competition, congratulations.

I'll list the answers below, but I only had 23 entries (all correct by the way!) in total, which is kind of pathetic considering how many collectors log into the various 8mm forums, and it wasn't a particularly hard competition in the first place, anyway here's the answers to the questions:

All you had to do was fill in the missing word or name of 3 actors, once found tell me the film title that links all 3.

1) ---- Palance (Jack)
2) The ----- Drop Kid (Lemon (I did take a slight liberty, his real surname was spelt (Lemmon))
3) ------- Rennie (Michael)
4) Melvyn ------- (Douglas)
5) ---- Seymour (Jane)
6) Bridget ----- (Fonda)

The film that linked all 3 was of course "The China Syndrome"

There you have it, easy peasy, especially with the likes of the i.m.d.b. available to all forum members, so why so few entries, answers on a postcard too........!

Will I do another competition, probably as I'm stupid, I enjoy setting them, perhaps next time I'll go the other way and make the next competition extremely hard, who knows!

Thanks Barry for doing the competition. It was fun. I wouldn't have made it without the internet though.
