Hi Chris,

Glad you like the idea - it's good of you to give the go-ahead for me to "hi-jack" the idea a bit and make it a bit trickier....

It'll give some people a bit of brain teasing to come up with unusual links

I can see that wikipedia and imdb.com are going to be accessed quite a bit....especially with some of the names that have been used already....never heard of some of them !!

regards
Tim
