    Watching Only Connect last night got me thinking:

    Cash Duvall Fortune Rafter
    Shaw Wonga Newcombe De Niro
    Rosewall Carlyle Adelphi Dough
    Lyric Dosh Powell Laver

    A couple of decoys mind: "Shaw" could be an actor or a theatre, "Cash" could be slang for dosh or an Ozzie tennis player.

    Got another. Martin Shaw played Bodie in The Professionals.

    Think it was Bodie anyway.

    After googling, it was Doyle :cheesy:
