I wonder if Derwi gets all 10 if they are in alphabetical rather than chronological order.

At the end would have been left with before Atlanta and between Melbourne and Munich.

I definitely would have gone Montreal over Toronto. I guess that's obvious considering that Toronto would have been impossible.
I don't think I would have remembered Antwerp but given the knowledge that it starts with an A it's possible I would have.

Alright Gad here's your question:

Name the 10 Shakespeare title characters whose first names have six or fewer letters

(This is according to the Royal Shakespeare Company website which doesn't list Edward III as an official play so 'Edward' isn't correct)

Good luck!

Also yeah that question was from the TV version so I just copied the answers from there, might be best to do all questions in alphabetical order from now on except from the 'next 10' categories like the Star Wars one

Don't think you have to make it easier for us.

Being on a forum is easier than doing it in real time as it is.

But however you want is fine.

the history i'm not thinking of is Richard II, I think, not Henry II

somewhere in my head is that Henry VIII is now generally agreed to be part of the canon

let me go through all the plays and see if i'm missing something

I last studied theater seriously about twenty years ago

and the lol thing is that there could actually be new Shakespeare plays since then that I don't remember hearing about

the alphabetical thing really helps

what names are there that come after Timon?

oh, it couldn't be Thomas More anyway, since Th precedes Ti

ahahahaha just remembered the name of the one where the dude is baked into a pie

Titus Andronicus

I've read some Shakespeare, but didn't realize (or think about) Lear was a first name.
