(Side question: Am I right in thinking that a substantial chunk of the people playing these 20 questions games are British? I'm an American myself.)

Yes, it has been rather warm this summer. Nothing a true Texan can't handle.

We only have 20 questions in total and you already narrowed it down into a 20 year slot. This is wasteful and foolish.

9. British!
11. Not known for musical performance or composition.
12. Not a politician.

Please nobody ask any more questions about the year this person died, we've got it down to within 10 years.

All we currently know is that this was a real British person who died between 1910 and 1920.

It was quite warm back in June, to the extent it almost hit 30 degrees in my part of Gloucestershire a couple of times. July was cold and wet... and so is August.

Did he fight in a war?
