                Well done indeed, mercs. You seem to have the knack of tuning into Cloughie's wavelength!

                          Is this referring to a play by someone called Percy or a play involving a character called Percy or something else?

                            20th-Century Fox are to distribute upcoming Ridley Scott film based on Percy Bysse Shelley's 'Prometheus Unbound'. I can't find anything foxy in Act 3 Scene 1 of the play.

                              I freely admit it's a terrible clue

                              "Percy" is the eponymous "hero" of an opera

                              Percy = Percival = ******** ??
