Not Grimble, Daisy.
Mr Grimble was the old gardener in The Mystery of the Strange Messages.
Any other guesses?

Re: Find-Outers Series Quiz
Does the S start his first name or his surname?
I'll take a guess and say Stephens?

Re: Find-Outers Series Quiz
It’s his surname that starts with S, but it’s not Stephens, Snugglepot.

Re: Find-Outers Series Quiz
It doesn't look like it. I can only think of something like Squires.

Oh boy. Ventriloquist in Vanished Prince. Name that sounds Greek. Begins with E. Can't remember more than that but I will probably wake at two in the morning shouting the name (that will surprise next door, I suppose).
My guess is .. Eurcyles?

Re: Find-Outers Series Quiz
