1. Not a real dead male.
2. Alive
3. From Europe
4. Not a politician
5. Not a female
6. Not from Wales
7. Not from the British Isles at all

So far we've used seven questions to establish that it's a European male non-politician who is alive today and is not from Britain.

I cannot find any pictures of him wearing glasses, so I will say no to that.

Is it the 1st Viscount Melbourne?
We have a new Robert the Bruce.
Note that Oct probably asked this because the 1st Viscount Melbourne's name was "Penistone Lamb".

This is making fun of me for the autocorrect issue last time :razz: :lol:
Peniston Lamb, who was famously the only Lord of the Bedchamber in the whole world 200 years ago. :lol:

Hey listen, using the Damo method it often takes us 8 questions to find out whether the person is male or female and alive or dead.

At least I'm mixing it up a little.

Has this person been relevant in the past 10 years?
That's rather subjective. Define relevant...
Hm, ok lemme try..

Would any event related to what has made this person significant or famous or newsworthy have occurred on or after January 1st, 2012. i.e. starred in a movie or discovered the covid vaccine or was trending everywhere for a week due to a salacious scandal or married a Jonas brother (as opposed to a cat food commercial they did in Japan, the sixth baby they just welcomed into the world, or their headlining at the Brussels Comic Con last year

If still too subjective then feel free to skip and I'll go back to the drawing board.

With that clarification I think I can safely answer: No

The World Cup is around the corner, and this man is from Europe, so let me try it from this angle:

Was he, or still is, involved in football?
