I would have liked to hold off replying and see how long these comedian guesses went on for but I don't want to waste anyone's time (since we're wasting enough playing guessing games on a Countdown forum).

I have one too if I may be so bold: Guess whose hair my Mum cut yesterday (yes it's a famous person). One other person on this forum knows the answer; I request that they allow the others to guess without spoiling it.

See, my tired old brain did get confused!! Liam's questioning of Adam as it whether his person was female somehow lodged in my brain as Liam saying that his was female. Which is really stupid because he's only supposed to be answering yes or no.
Sorry for misleading folks.
So, is it male?
If so, is it just one person?
