    The end is reached. Thank you to all who took part, much appreciated. I did think that more people would have participated after the death of Sir Roger, so didn't expect the game to go as long as it did, even with so many choices to choose from. Therefore, my apologies for the extensive list.

    Anyway, we have a worthy winner, not my own favourite but a classic nonetheless. Some lines, I thought would have fared better but,that's the beauty of the game.

    Again, many thanks to all. Cheers.

    Good game. A few surprises here and there but generally a very respectable ranking.

    Very worthy winner! Not only is the line great in itself, but sir Rog's delivery is just spot on!
