What an interesting version of the game. 

Seems like a lot more work for the original poster... 

[indie180]

The first one I posted, I picked something like

British
Doctor
1942

Then went looking for someone, it turned out to be a good one as it came up with an author was had something to do with Dr Who. That stumped him for a wee while.

I think I have eliminated "Italian" but then again...

[smokester]

Is he Richard Rogers?

Aargh, I have seen that face before and I am fairly certain of his occupation, but his name won't come to mind. Wiki here I come.

[smokester]

For the record there a 27 different combinations and if you know the occupation that goes down to 9 I believe.  One of the rules is that if you out the right combination into google the person should return high up on the first page of results, so it should be fairly easy for you then... .  It is more a relaxed game that me and indie used to play by PM.
